Capcha to access the forum?
CloudFire doesn't like me? It keeps saying to get temporary access and to scan my computer for viruses. Hello? If I had a virus McAfee would have told me.

Sometimes Cloudflare gets aggressive with it's bot scanning tools. In general, Cloudflare is pretty good at keeping attacks at a minimum. Things that can trigger the bot warning / CAPCHA is a proxy or Tor, which can mask your computer to appear from a country that is known to have lots of attack vectors. It could also be another computer near you connected to the same network. For instance, if your father's computer has a bot installed on it, your IP address (which you share with your father) would be cautioned.
Lastly, McAfee alone is not enough to verify if your computer is virus free. Actually, there's not a good way to know if your computer is virus free. I would see if a different device, such as a tablet or a phone, will trigger the warning. I would also see if a public wifi network will trigger the warning. If you have a laptop, travel to your nearest coffee shop and try logging in from there. This can help me narrow down why you might be having this issue.

I don't use a proxy, I don't have any other computers, I don't have a laptop, I don't have a network, and I don't have a father anymore (please don't ask).
It happens every 10 minutes or so and is very annoying.
Any other ideas?

I have gotten this a few times but it's only when I'm in downtown and it picks it up and I know it's a public WiFi but when I get home I never have a problem.

I've tried rebooting my computer and my source of internet with no change.
Could it be because I'm behind on Windows Update?

I don't think so I have gotten it on my phone when I'm not home it's because I'm using an unprotected Wi-Fi.

That's really strange then. I connect using USB tether. The only one online on it is me because there's only one port on the phone, and it has encryption in the driver.
ray can you do nothing about this? It's irritating.

Went away late in the day I posted my previous post. Weird. Was not saying anything to see if it would reappear, but it hasn't.
