You are seeing that page because CloudFare believes your IP address is behaving badly, for whatever reasons. ( see https://www.google.com/webhp#q=202.72.107.83 )

Instead of outright blocking all traffic from known bad IP addresses, they have a mechanism to let actual users go in. That mechanism relies on a captcha flow, and on setting a cookie in the user's browser to bypass the IP block.

Disclaimer: I am inferring all of this from your screenshot. CloudFare's actual process and intent may vary.
