Every Thread I try and enter in the Cafe launches a Log-in Window asking for Username and Password...

"Enter username and password for http://www.tootpix.ca" <--- This is the offending Phishing prompt. I've NEVER seen it before today.

Anyone else encountering this???

Saw it once. Hit the back arrow and thought not much about it.

It's only here in the Cafe. I just tried Number Crunching, and all is fine there.

I also get the prompt when trying to post here in the Cafe. VERY annoying.

Log-in Window asking for Username and Password...

Just happened in the political forum.

Late edit.

Got a Log-in Window message, in Cafe Set.

I very much doubt celt is fishing for your info:) It's just one of his pics gone haywire. I'd PM but don't know the proper fix. Quick & dirty would be removing the pic/pics from his signature...

TL -- Just a thought: Do a "search" in your system, for tootpix.ca
If you find it, just delete.

Well that's why I don't see it.

I've got sig's turned off as some peoples' sig's can take up as much room as a 10 story building and I prefer just to see the actual posts.

Cheers.

It's Celts posts, He has two images from tootpix.ca in His Sig, something is wrong there, I blocked the two locations in adblock plus, the problem went away.

I am seeing it on my MAC when I look at the Raccoon thread. I suspected it might be caused by the Whiskey/Cheese picture but I don't know for sure.

It is cell tooth in at least one case Link. Looks like you don't want to post picture from Toothpix because they will mess up the thread.

The toothpix gifs aren't showing here, maybe why I don't get any warning. I also think Luminus has a pretty good firewall...

It's not really a warning, it's a password request to view the pictures. As I don't have a password to the site, I have to close a window for each picture posted.
