    I saved my short cut logged in and all I see is that annoying browser checking screen.
    I am tempted to capture the URL from that screen to find out where it is coming from. We may need to change all our passwords if it is coming from a dodgy country.

      I don’t understand all the technicalities of theses things but if you’d like to check out the URL Plot, then please do and let us know.

      Hopefully as Burnie says, Admin have set the anti spam too high as we’ve been having a lot of spammers recently.

        Hi All,

        We had a spike in traffic yesterday from web scraping bots and various other bot sources for a few hours. In order to keep the site running smoothly for you guys, we temporarily added those measures to filter out those requests.

        We've now lowered that filtering as the activity has passed, but you might see it on occasion briefly in the future. Nothing to be concerned about, the alternative is that the site might become quite bogged down and slow which we'd like to avoid!

          Thanks, Dan. Just a bit weird when you're not expecting it, especially the invitation to download an app.

          Seems all sorted now and will bear it in mind for the future.

                  Sadly in these trying times, there's a lot of scammers and spammers active, not just attacking sites like these, be careful what emails and texts you open.
