Is This An Attack On The Forum?

[Polar Continental]

Anyone else getting this when opening certain pages, when going to page 5 of the model discussion thread I get this box with the following text,

the server www.lfcreds.com at Apologies. The forum is currently undergoing emergency work. requires a username and password.

Warning: This server is requesting that your username and password be sent in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection).

Obviously I have not completed the boxes as it is asking for passwords for my on line accounts.

I had the same, but from the main board index, just pressed cancel (3 times) and it went away.

It's not an attack, it's someone using an image from that server in their signature - will remove it and the issue will clear.
