    Google Scraper

    First off.. Hi everyone, I just registered.

    Next, Im coding a google scraper, and I am using the webclient to scrape pages, everything works pretty well, except sometimes google decides to give me a temporary ban while scraping pages, if I scrape too quickly.

    So I want to pull the image (captcha) off of the page http://www.google.ca/sorry/ and then display it to the user so that they may continue to scrape pages.

    Problem is, when I try to load the page so that I can get the url of the image... it throws an exception (Error 503 server unavailable). Can anyone here help me figure out how to fix this? Or maybe show me a better way to do what I am currently doing?

    Thanks!
    Chase
