403 (Forbidden) using Google Translate API key

[Jeremy Perrin]

For the past couple of days I've been getting 403 from the Google translate API. I did sign up for an API key and the service is activated under my domain and user. I'm using Key for server apps no IP locking.

My current zeta editor version is 2.2.0.27

Any ideas why this would be happening? The complete exception is below

Thanks in advance 

System.Net.WebException

The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

403 error also occurs when the Per-User Limit is exceeded, the google api console default is 100 character/second. Increasing the Per-User Limit eliminated the 403 exception.
