    Honestly I think unknown IP screening is at the root of a decent amount of suspensions and log on restrictions. I just received a similar email/message today from the Launcher. This comes after having totally reformatting my computer this weekend to ensure NO viruses/malware were present, and all I've done was reformat/install windows/update windows+drivers/ install and register FFxiv/ Play FFxiv.

    While not impossible, I find it hard to belive that my computer had shadey interwebz stds.

    I don't mind SE restricting my account based on unknown IP's but at least be a little more clear on why the account is restricted (GW2 was very transparent on why your log-in was restricted)
