Why do I have to complete a CAPTCHA?

   Completing the CAPTCHA proves you are a human and gives you temporary access to the web
   property.

What can I do to prevent this in the future?

   If you are on a personal connection, like at home, you can run an anti-virus scan on your device
   to make sure it is not infected with malware.

   If you are at an office or shared network, you can ask the network administrator to run a scan
   across the network looking for misconfigured or infected devices.
