New device messge

Had my first message this morning using the laptop I always use. Stated the town and zip code of my location. Creepy. I did notice I had to log in while I usually have auto-login (or maybe I don't have to because I never log out, I just exit). Had the same with other sites as well. That usually only happens after my anti-virus program has done a major update and clears cookies but this is the first time I saw a message like this for BZ and I am using the same device and browser (it said Windows/MSIE). Didn't get similar messages from other sites (until now).

I enabled this feature a few days ago. It should have made things more secure, but it's clearly not working. I didn't write the code. I'll try it again in a few months to see if the bugs have been worked out.

All of a sudden, every time I log in, I get sent an email saying I've logged in on a device I've never used before. Why am I getting these messages. It says to ignore them if it's me, so I do. How do I make it stop?

me too.  I had to make an in box rule in my yahoo to delete the messages, which come with every login.
