FTE is checking your browser

I get a splash page last few times logging in that says "FTE is checking your browser". Been on here for a little while (6 months or so?) and my browser, to my knowledge, was never checked before. Checked for what?

Is this new or something malicious? And why do we need it?

Today it asked me for human indication and other "proof". Very suspicious.

I am not much of a poster here, but I do like reading here and I am suspicious. Three days running I have seen this. If it happens tomorrow when I log in, I will log out and not log back in. No bother to anybody here I know.
