why am I constantly being asked to provide my screen name and password?  a small screen keeps popping up asking for this information from the "server."  It also states that it is an "unsecure" site/route..............any ideas?

Hmm, I don't think I'd provide it, sounds spooky.

then again, could be just a glitch.
Can you still access things in here when it asks for it? (ie, can you reply if the box asking for your password is "up"?

Perhaps you need to ask RoboOp. think about what type of connections you have, I.E are you going through a proxy? or are you going through a VPN connection? or going through norma means of interent. Try looking into a possible Browser hijack? to check if you have or are hacked, type netstat in the search box on your computer, a black box will pop with all the ip's and what you are connected to, if you see the words listening, its possbile you may have a hacker listening in your connection. or it could be to do with your security software giving false negative/false possitive readings.

But have words with RoboOp.

Try taking a screenshot (PrtScrn [snaps photo] + Ctrl-V in Microsoft Paint). That way we can get a better look at the error.

To me it sounds like a bad connection due to wifi. Probably the ISP is changing your IP address during a re-connect. Or as Richie mentioned you might be behind a proxy, or someone is doing a man-in-the-middle against your connection, but since it's WPA2 it's less likely.
