Hi Tom, actually I use the snippets feed query. I have not used the
key for more than a year and never had a problem. However,  I added
the key to the query and today I am not getting the 403 error. The
traffic is only about 2000 queries a day, max.

Thanks for your tip!  Problem solved for now!

Mike
