I keep getting a message


I posted it in the HELP forum but I've not received a reply

The pop up keeps asking for my username and password.

I enter it and after about 4/5 times it finally takes it..

Then--- 10/20 minutes later it asks for me to do it again!

Why????????????????????

Am I the only one with this problem?

could be a restricted photo on the page you're on . . . doesn't sound like a DU prompt if it's a pop-up

Do you have all that garbage activating facebook and google ect...when you log into DU?

Probably one of those is demanding you log in everytime because of a posted photo or some such other weird login requirement.

Turn it off...

just my two cents

Facebook and I only use google to search for an item sometimes..

Can't think of anything new that I have done to cause this to happen.
