    Uncertain as to why. My system is clean and Ive never had to do this before. This is merely to access the site! Very weird.
    Anyone have an idea as to how/why this is happening and how to fix it?

    cheers

    Maybe you use VPN or a Browser extension like Browsec?

    You're correct. Its a cloudflare thing.

    Any idea how to get "clean"?

    You can't. At some point some VPN ip addresses are being abused (malware, hacking, DoS attacks, etc...) and are then blacklisted by Cloudflare requiring a Captcha. I get this all the time on my VPN as well. I just connect to another country/server if it annoys me too much.
