Is this a glitch or are robots trying to login into accounts at all times?
If so, seems like 15 attempts is a lot of noise.

Are you on a windows box or a MAC?
What browser are you using?
What version of the browser are you using?
Have you run your auto update program recently?

Quite a bit of the minor issues with this site can be resolved with a cleaning out of your browser and system cache, and an update of your various software packages (browser, operating system, and plug ins).

As always, I'll help as I can, just need the above answered first.

Bill,

I still get those problems once in a while and I keep my computers clean including the Prefetch Folder. I get them on my XP, Windows 7 Pro, and Windows 10 Pro computers running 3 different browsers. Also all of my drivers and everything else is updated regularly. Hope this helps you get some idea as it is very intermittent for me and has happened just after I have did a clean up of my computers and also when I haven't did the weekly cleaning.

Ron
