Offensive Error Messages

I guess one of my ongoing sweeps is no longer active. I tried opening the page from a bookmark in IE and was directed to the home page. That's no biggie. However, this is an error message I received when trying to open the same page from a bookmark in Foxfire (with referrer blocked):

403 Access Denied
Access to the requested resource has been denied. We suspect you are using an automated process to access this website. Please retry with a regular browser.

I do believe they could come up with something more appropriate and much less offensive. They could just state that you need to allow private headers.
