I recently got a new computer and when trying to login to the admin area I get this pop up that says "the server at ****** requires a username and password. If I enter my admin username and password it will not work. On my old machine I used to get this pop up but it had a pre-filled in reposnes. The username was my admin username but the password appears to be 14 characters and I have no idea what it is. Its not my admin password. Is this some kind of setting on the forum software side or on the server side? Can this be eliminated and just have the admin login show and not this server authentication thing?

Sounds like you have .htaccess authorization on your site. You need to contact your hosting provider for help with that.Translations provided by Google.

You should go into your hosting control panel and look for something called password protect directories, or something similar.

OK, this might have something to do with the VBSEO then
