Question

Just received a strange sin-in box within SeaMonkey/FireFox

have been reading and making comments on items in the Adobe Forums.

Despite my being signed in. After a I made a Reply in  one forum topics and dismissed the window (I go to topics from the e-mail Notifications so I can read and just comment on what I want to), I received this strange Pop up Box  requesting  Username and Password and mentions something about Jive software.

Has any one else experienced such?  I dismissed it without filling in, and was able to go into nex topic but was slow doing so.

    Please forgive me for the sin of poking a little innocent fun.

      At about what time did this happen (and let us know what time zone you are in)? My guess is that the server node you were on went down and you got switched over to another node and for some reason or other it asked for your Jive Forums name/password (which we don’t use here) instead of your Adobe credentials. By the time you moved to the next message the node transition had finished.

      I did see some node alerts overnight and again this morning.

      Eastern Daylight Time (Eastern Standard Time) in VA Mid-Atlantic Area (UTC -5:00 ?)

      It was just a few minutes before I posted the question.

      (In FireFox or SeaMonkey when you set up some newsgroups that require authentication of some type a similar box will pop up asking for Username and Password. Usually if you do this you have option to save then in Username /password database so you don't have to enter it again. It was similar looking to this.  I was so surprised by it I didn't thing to create a screen shot.)
