I have Thunderbird using my AOL email address. Always worked perfectly until today. I keep getting a message asking me to "enter credentials" for my email address "on imap.aol.com". But I noticed that the screen shows the following "https://s.yimg.com/rq/darla/4-7-1/html/r-sf.html". Is this legit?

Your image link doesn't work. It's probably the browser window for OAuth2 authentication, which should appear if the authentication for the incoming and outgoing servers is OAuth2. Remove the passwords from Saved Passwords in Options, check that cookies are allowed in TB Options/Privacy & Security, restart TB, enter the account password in the OAuth window when prompted.
