We won't be able to see your picture until a moderator approves it.

 

My guess is that it is something about a message asking you to update Flash. This is a false alarm. It is down to your browser and its interaction with Flash.

 

How you respond depends on that browser. In Firefox, for example, it is a simple icon click:

 

Flashicon.jpg

 

Click that and "allow Flash".

 

There is a similar move in Chrome

You can of course allow Adobe Flash to store on the local PC.

 

You can also switch browsers (Chome and Edge won't give you that particular warning).

Only if configured to do so.

 

Chrome throws me a similar message. I have to click the bit next to the address slot:

 

Chrome flashChrome flash

 

then "Allow flash".

 

Same behaviour here with Edge.

@radiopunk0's error message is not the same as the one in Chrome/Edge that you are referring to.  It isn't asking him to allow flash for the web site.  He's gotten past that.  It's asking him whether he will allow the Adobe Flash Plugin access to local storage on his PC.  Chrome and Edge won't generate that particular message for my.arlo.com (as I said in my earlier post).  At least I've never seen it in those browsers.
