Unusual Traffic Message

Occasionally I keep getting this error message when I try to google something in my search bar:

"Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network." It also asks me to verify that I'm not a computer. This just started happening today.

If you are using a VPN try disabling it and compare your results.

Suspicious Network Behavior:

Google is suspicious of network traffic. This is the normal (and what would seem arrogant) behavior of Google.
