  Hi,

  Whenever I – or anyone else – visit my blog (http://upmic.wordpress.com), I get an Authentication Required dialogue box that states:

  “The server http://badger.dinorodeo.com:80 requires a username and password. The server says: Under maintenance”. This comes with options to LogIn or Cancel.

  Can you please let me know if there is something I can do to fix this?

  Many thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  It’s coming from the “Shark Bait Badge” you have in the sidebar.

  From your dashboard, you can go to Appearance > Widgets and remove it from the Primary Widget Area.
