For the life of me, I cannot see any captcha, and this message appears in red inside the login popup.
I have a fiber Internet connection and the latest updated version of Windows 11, updated today. I was on 2 weeks vacation, and came back to this issue.
My SyMenu version is 8.01.8833
Please see the screenshot.

I was afraid I would get this answer. I am very much online. I am not a newbie on the internet. I wouldn't be able to send you these messages without a connection. On top of that, I have a fiber connection, and I watch all my OTT shows on my computer.
I could send you a Speedtest screenshot if you like. |

After putting in that GUID, the URL takes me to a black page with a captcha... That's it.

So I have finally got it to work by allowing it as an exception in BitDefender's Firewall.
Also, the moment I installed 8.01.8833 a few weeks ago, BitDefender threw up false positives so I had to whitelist it in the antivirus.
So effectively I got it to work by first whitelisting it in BitDefender, and then ALSO allowing it in BitDefender's firewall when the updates did not work.
Not sure if lay users who download it for the first time would find SyMenu useful if it doesn't work the way they want it to because of these issues.

I can affirm that the false positive problem is becoming increasingly worse for all the AV software.
Probably the AV operation based on byte pattern recognition is starting to show its inherent limits.
It is my opinion that they are outsourcing the virus recognition function to some incompetent AI bot.
