I've had this flick on several times, and, of course, it's unnerving ... fortunately, the message disappears as it apparently did for you. I'm speculating it's simply a computer glitch... perhaps we'll get an official explanation.  James

Yikes! I have not seen that message pop up here, yet. Hopefully the tech administrator can provide an explanation. Clay/Lexi

I've had that happen to me before.  Try logging out and then back in.  If that doesn't work clear your cache files.

This has probably a connection to our spammer banning process, which bans not only a username and email address but also the IP address that they are using. In this day of mobile data, it does mean that sometimes you can be assigned the IP address that has been used by a spammer in the past. No real easy way around this, other than to turn off your WiFi and then it on again. That should allow you in and remove that message.

I think you're right...some scammer had my passcode (around six months ago) that I used on this site... I changed it months ago, but likely your firewall occasionally links the bad code to me.   Thank you for the explanation.  James
