Every time I try to log in, It takes me to a page where it says "Authentication words weren't entered properly". What's wrong?

If it helps, I recently created a Test account: bluerabbit78_test

I get that sometimes too. Maybe it's your computer; it only ever happens to me on my desktop at home, while I never have that problem at school or on a laptop at home. What kind of computer and browser is this happening on?

It must be the site's glitch, not just your computer then, because I was getting the same thing with IE on Windows XP. Somehow I'm not getting it anymore though.

Exactly correct. I really hate that. Scratch, please remove! THIS IS AN IMPORTANT TOPIC!!!!!!!!! Authentication is not needed.

Thanks!

I don't find any problem with the authentication words...

mathematics · 2011-02-13 05:10:54

I see what you mean now. I think it's just happening with Internet Explorer. I was using Google Chrome so I didn't know what you was talking about.

It happens with firefox on Mac OS Snow Leopard, too

Squawkers13 · 2011-02-13 17:31:53

But I use Google Chrome on Windows 7, and I have the same problem. I think the Scratch Team programmed the website so that every time you login, you have to enter the authentication words; the only problem is that they haven't changed the login box at the top to include that, so you must re-login every time.

mathematics · 2011-02-15 05:35:34

Strange! I use Google Chrome on Windows XP and I don't see that.

ssss · 2011-02-15 05:39:16

Same;

when I use IE @ skool on server 2003 it asks for authentication

Paddle2See · 2011-02-15 09:41:23

There was a change in this area recently...I now find that the I only get the authentication words if I mess up my password/account.

It's been always like that for me...

werdna123 · 2011-02-17 05:30:55

Happened to me too. So annoying! hmm

Lightnin · 2011-02-17 11:29:44

Sorry about this pesky glitch, everyone. It is a pain, I agree. sad

We're aware of it and are working on a different solution -- probably one that won't require CAPTCHA until you have failed the login process at least two times.

Yay! Actually, when I try to log in from the front page, it redirects me to the CAPTCHA page so just click 'login' and you'll only have to type in your usernam eand password once smile

I don't know if it's just my computer, but heres the "glitch timeline" for my computer.
One day: Glitch is here.
Next day: Glitch is gone.
Next day: Glitch is back.
And on, and on, and on.
So, the "fixes" are probably not working for my computer.

VexonTheHedgehog · 2011-02-18 16:38:24

It's so annoying! sad What's the big deal anyway? D:

rocket101 · 2011-02-19 11:54:01

It just got worse! I tried and tried, but I couldn't use my trick to bypass it!
