... but we can't process your request right now. A computer virus or spyware application is sending us automated requests, and it appears that your computer or network has been infected.
Well this really depends on their definition of your "network". Your Mac most probably can't be doing this, but if a chunk of your ISP's address space contains infected machines, including your system, this could happen. That said, I've NEVER seen this warning from Google.
Another possibility is that the machine that USED to have your address was infected and it's still blocked.
But again, I've NEVER seen nor heard of this warning from Google, though a search (using, of course Google ;-) turns up a number of hits like this:
