From /.

It seems like the latest MyDoom worm variant has caused a bit of an Internet 
storm. Google, at this time (12:28 EDT), is returning 503 errors on all 
queries submitted from certain locations. The MyDoom variant searches the 
user's address book for email domains (i.e. @yahoo.com) and searches various 
engines (such as Google) for email addresses in that domain."
