A couple of different sites today have given me the error “Error: Invalid API parameter(s). Try reloading the page.” when I click the captcha box. Have tried reloading, using another browser, rebooting, and turning off all ad-blockers.

Windows 10 (fully updated), latest versions of Chrome and Firefox.

Anybody got any ideas?
