LANhandler Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I think this will happen if you're connecting from an IP that's associated with spam. Try accessing bing without a proxy/vpn/tor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJerman Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I don't see anyone mentioning it specifically, but you do have your own internet connection, right? Like one public IP for your computer, or maybe for all of your computers, but you're not somewhere that's sharing connections with anyone else are you? The only time I've ever gotten those prompts was when I was at work and apparently too many people using the same external IP were searching.

Dot Matrix Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Nope. It's just me on this IP. But the problem seems to have sorted itself out. I haven't been prompted in a few days here. I cleaned my cache once more, and it seems to have subsided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
