This is weird.

The "The Google Maps API server rejected your request" message is
generated by the API loader code. The fact that you're seeing this
message means that your laptop is capable of connecting to
 http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api
but that the server at that location doesn't like your request.

Once the server causes that alert to be displayed, it doesn't then
attempt to load any other Google Maps related resources, so any site
blocking or mis-routing to other Google resources wouldn't affect the
situation.

If other computers can access the Google Maps on the same sites, then we
know that things like the API key, &sensor, etc., must be correct. The
only other thing that the Google Server could be looking at is your HTTP
headers.

Have you, by any chance, hacked the "User-Agent" identification strings
of your browsers to something that Google can't recognise?

It might be worth taking a look in the Browser Mirror to see if your
browser sends any odd HTTP headers. Go to
  http://centralops.net/asp/co/BrowserMirror.vbs.asp
The HTTP headers should look something like this:

 Connection: keep-alive
 Keep-Alive: 300
 Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
 Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7
 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate
 Accept-Language: en-gb,en;q=0.7,he;q=0.3
 Host: centralops.net
 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5)
        Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.6

Except in your case it won't say "Windows" in the User-Agent string.
