Whenever I switch say from 45spaces to 45worlds I get a momentary screen that says something like "Just checking you're Human". Is this a new thing, and what's it for?

It is new and is a ramp up of the site security.

I'm seeing a very basic display page here (but not on 45cat) when I use my Firefox browser but not when I use Opera. Is this just a temporary glitch?

45worlds is working fine and everything back to normal.

I get that now, and it does make me panic, as I am not entirely convinced I am human :happy:

...But I do the dance, and the system is suitably convinced I am.

I'm not sure either how the system determines that I am human but it's reassuring that it does decide that every single time so far without fail. :happy:

In any case, it's probably a good idea to ramp up security against potential hacking bots, given that even the Internet Archive got recently hacked and was forced to go offline for about 2 weeks. I'm not sure what the hackers hoped to achieve with this, but I can't imagine they were hoping to make a lot of money there.

This human reality check comes up very often and currently on almost every edit action or entry check. Not the intention? Post scriptum: seems to have corrected itself....
