I did two searches via the keyword tool and was locked out of pretty much anything to do with Adwords. I'm not exactly sure why it happened today because about three months ago I sat for hours on end before doing searches and never had this issue. Today, I did two searches and BAM, locked out.

Now I can't login to my Adwords account because I get a message stating "your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now." whenever I pull up adwords.google.com.

Does anybody know what a person needs to do in order to get back into their account?

Adwords has no control over this.

It is the old man behind the curtain (google search).

As adwords support says... we cannot control this. Our keyword tool is out of our control.

To get back into adwords you can:

Click you heals 3 times (quickly), then delete your cookies and you'll be ok again.
