I bought the CE but I didn't realize a security token came with it for this purpose.Quote:

I would suggest getting a token if you don't have one already, as others said it should be in the CE box, I just hope for your sake they didn't sell all your items and take your money.
I've been using my token since FF11 and its still working.Quote:

IF SE does this just cause you got another IP then they prove once again how to make something the wrong way.
Seeing a changing IP as an unusual Thing seems stupid. Where I am it's normaly that your IP changes. You actually Need to pay additional fees if you like to have a static adress. And most ISPs don't even seell this Service to non Business customers. -

Dynamic IP address aren't that different from one another, they display the country and region of the IP. -
04-03-2012, 12:45 AMElexiaActually, if your iP is 75.xx then you suddenly log in from 151.x which is usually a completely different country for example, how is that not seen as suspicious? Especially if the log time was within only minutes of each other? This is because of the whole RMT hacking situation, which lead them to blocking China and some Korean IPs for a good period.Quote:

Well I am in Paris France, and the reason this happened I suppose is because I attempted to login from a different computer than the one I normally do. It just seems a little drastic.
