You should probably post this in the errors and bugs thread and not make a new topic.

That's interesting though, I'm sure this problem happened before and it fixed itself for me but if this is the case then at least we know the source of it.

Just to confirm that I, too, am encountering this issue. Only started happening in the last hour or so, and again I had to enter a CAPTCHA when attempting to access the site as my computer 'may have been flagged on <captchaprovidor>'s website as containing malware' (or something to that effect).

MALU was suposed to be whitelisted to use the site without this captcha crap by using a special http agent string, which we agreed on a while ago; it seems that's no longer effect or something broke.. idk, the issue with malu is indeed the catpcha.

I'm just gonna sit tight and let MAL figure out the issues with their security updates, considering this site was abused by hackers not too long ago. Until then I'll just have to avoid using MALU and my android app.

I had gotten this issue too.
Soon after experiencing it, I had to enter in a Captcha on MyAnimeList.
Something about there being possibly malware on my system?
I did a scan, and nothing popped up.

I hope this gets fixed soon. :(

Well Kotori just answered all of our questions. We can stop saying "me too" Hopefully they get this fix as soon as possible. "ganbatte kudasai" :)

Wonder if MAL will ever stabilize again? Its been unstable / having issues for so long, I have been considering the move away from MAL for months, and I keep not doing it cause I think MAL is easily the best site available.. minus the instability and security issues, of course.

Besides that, other sites don't have MALU :(

Same here. Reinstalled, but I'm running a virus scan on my computer just to be safe. Is this because of that Heartbleed stuff or something?

Yea me 2. I can't log in to the updater and some annoying Captcha keeps popping up every time I try to go on the MAL website! I'm so glad I'm not the only one.

Thanks for the heads up, I had no idea. Anyway seems like not just MALU is affected by it, but anything that tries to reach the site automaticaly like for instance rss feed.
So I guess we just have to wait out untill MAL figures out how to solve this.

You mean, like almost fuckin' year ago? Yeah, that's recent... if you live thousands of years. Which you don't.

Don't worry, it's not you, it's just that Crave0nline are a bunch of lazy fucks. Malware my ass. Never had any in 8 (eight) years, and now they tryin' to feed me that shit.

They have Taiga and some other similar programs.

And about that captcha thingy: they say
clear your cookies, close your browser, wait for a while, than try again, with a different browser if possible
I heard that it works for some happy souls. Glad for them, but I have videos that I'm watchin' online, and I don't feel like again waitin' when it downloaded.

This is annoyin' as Hell. I can stand some BBCode not workin' (actually, I like it - there are a lot of users that just love to abuse it, stuffin' their posts with "funny" pics, heavy gifs, "memes" & "funny" videos and turnin' forum discussions in fuckin' AIB) but that captcha thingy really make me think about switchin' from MAL to... G-d-damn, any other similar site. Anime-Planet is first candidate (got some friends here).

0h, and - thank you, Kotori, you are amazing.
There is such thing as shit taste. Only idiots think that every "work of art" should have the same value.

Honestly, if Kotori suddenly annouced he was going to start developming an animelist updater for animeplanet or hummingbird, I would very VERY seriously consider leaving MAL and going there. :x

@kitsune0 Taiga works here. I can log in, download and update the episodes, but MALU doesn't work.

Why can I login with Taiga and not with MALU?
