Is anyone else encountering a floating "contact us" in the vicinity of the log in position in the top right of the screen just under the "Warbirds Resource Group" in the blue banner?

Every time I try to log in this "contact us" appears and floats over the top of the log in area and I have to position the curser on the remaining portion of the log in button to avoid it?

It occurs even after I have logged in, ie as I attept to log out.

Is it related to the windows version I'm running, or is everyone encountering it?

Mods, please feel free to relocate this post if considered O/T?

regards

Mark Pilkington

Whatever it is, if it asks for your password, do not provide it.

There have been several of those boxes showing up at other phpBB powered forums, and they prompt you to type your
user-id and password.

Press "1" for English.
Press "2" to disconnect until you have learned to speak English.


Sooooo, how am I going to know to press 1 or 2, if I do not speak English????

What browser are you using, screen resolution, etc... It may be related to that. It looks fine here.

To me, it looks like it is the work of Chinese hackers. They have been trying for a long time, to use their bots to register
on one of the boards that I manage. I have registration disabled, and I have blocked many of their IP addies. All the IP tracking points to sites located in cities deep in China.

Seems to float around depending on how I size my window (IE8).

Try Control/scrolling your window to a smaller size and see if it fixes itself.
