I saw a little blinky mail icon on the top right of each page on Code Project (just to the left of my username). When I hovered it and clicked the link it sent me to a page saying that all emails confirmed before a certain date need to be reconfirmed. I opened my email, clicked the confirmation link, and was brought to a page that said "There was an error confirming your address. Can you please retry?" I tried again and got the same message.

Experiencing the same problem.

Another bug: I wasn't notified of your reply to my message. Probably caused by my email address needing to be reconfirmed.

I'm not sure. That happens to me very often so I have a habit of checking my recent posts regularly in order to see if there are any messages. I haven't been able to spot under what circumstances this happens. Sometimes it's the first message (for example for an article) and sometimes it's a message further inside a single thread...

Same over here!!
I tried using IE and Chrome. I also tried hitting confirmation emails when logged off. But it ends up with the same error message.
(Please tell me the reconfirmation thing itself is not a result from a security hole.)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Same here.
"Please reconfirm your email by clicking here." didn't help
and
"Alternatively, paste http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/ConfirmEmail.aspx?tg=#### into your browser address window to confirm that this is your email address."
didn't help either.
I'm using Firefox.
Can't get rid of the little yellow "blinky mail icon", too.
Tried to open "My Settings (SSL)". I had to click on that three times before it works.
What's going on? Some security breach?
Thanks for you help in advance.

Was it worth such a post? If you read this thread, you'll see that the CP team has already said they have a fix. Wouldn't you rather wait for them to make sure it doesn't have any adverse effects?

Since when have we started to expect people to be nice and civil on CodeProject? I read a few responses in the Lounge this morning and remain convinced that CP attracts some of the biggest jerks out there. Some of them are good programmers, and often do contribute to the site/community, but they are still assholes.

Not sure if that's sarcasm or not, Chris. But I try to set an example by avoiding verbal confrontations with people, never insulting anyone for their grammar/lack of knowledge/newbie-ness, and by not using the 1-vote as a fight-back response. Of course I am no way near the nicest folks here (like you, Pete, and Ravi Bhavnani to name a few that come to mind).
I don't want to mark someone's post as "abuse" (reporting the post) merely because they are rude or insulting, since it'll just result in angry threads in the Suggestions forum where people complain to you that they lost rep points, and then you mostly seem to undo the vote to get them off your back.

You see, that's what I love about British English, arseholes sounds so much classier than a**holes. That extra letter just drags that word out nicely.
