Pete, you mean you never see this "CAPTCHA" page?

Maybe when I originally log in, but once logged in I stay logged in.

I have seen this a couple of times when activating VPN - sometimes when doing so (eg: browsing via VPN) SOTW struggles to identify me and as a security measure wants me to identify myself. I deactivate VPN and all is fine. HOWEVER - SOTW has come to recognise me when I am browsing via VPN and I have not seen this security check since. FWIW - SOTW is not the only site to present me with such a security check when I'm using VPN - Virtual Private Network

I was under the impression that a lot of sites will block VPNs

Hey Pete - yes a lot of them do but.....SOTW and other sites seem to recognise me now. I think it has a great deal to do with "from where / what part of the world" you are accessing the VPN.

Cloudflare Challenge Issues

The developers are still working to find the optimum balance between preventing spammers while at the same time not hindering our legit members.

Check following the following tool/extension to help limit how often you have to deal with CAPTCHA.

FWIW I installed this extension on my Chrome browser. Once it was installed I clicked each option for tokens to prevent it from happening as much in the future.

Also happened to me several times. It can be bypassed reloading the page and browser resends all login data again and You are in.

That did not happen to me, even when they changed to the new site. Weird! But I don't think its malware. Maybe try a different browser like duckduckgo or something?
