Twitter Authentication Required?
I just went to a member's home page to wish them a happy birthday and was presented with this screen, attached below. This has never happened to me before.

Just thought I would let someone know.

This will happen, I believe, if the person has added their twitter name to their profile here, but, at Twitter, has their twitter-feed hidden from all but those who "follow" them. Something like that anyway. Something that pops up that dialog prompted by Twitter asking you to say who at Twitter you are, so they can check if you're authorized to read the Twitter posts (as displayed in the person's profile here).

Cheers,
Marc

Okay, thanks, that makes sense. It's just that I can usually see the twitter messages if members have attached their twitter name to their profile.

A matter of privacy that I'm okay with and since it's been the only time this message has popped up it's not annoying.
