IMPORTANT: During login, if you see a warning message similar to the
one shown here, then stop and do not proceed.
This message is displayed if an AdderView CATxIP 5000 unit that your
viewer has previously visited, has had a change of security keys. This
is not uncommon if a unit is reset for some reason. However, it could
also mean that your trusted unit is being spoofed and you may not be
connecting to the system that you think you are.
Do not click the Yes button until you have checked with your
administrator that the trusted AdderView CATxIP 5000 unit has been
recently reset for some reason.
