Google 403 Forbidden Error? A Pain In The Neck
This is really one of the most frustrating thing that can happen when dealing with Google – the Google 403 Forbidden Error
While trying to download an application from Google Code, I was shown the unfriendly 403 forbidden page that totally shut down the download.

The page suggested that my computer was infected with virus and wanted me to install a virus scanner and check for virus. The fact is, I am using Ubuntu and there’s is definitely no virus on my machine (there is also no virus for Linux OS at this moment).
I guess it could be my network problem, so I switched my DHCP to manual IP configuration. Yup, that didn’t work as well.
I have enough of that. Just want to thank Google for giving me such a ‘deliberate surprise’ on Christmas.
God bless you, Google!

When you receive Google Error 403 Forbidden simply delete the Google.com cookies and sign in again to get fresh cookies. It’s that simple.
