Possible new phishing thing alert

Hi,
So my email client which is set to automatic gave me a random request to login. It has been almost 20 years since i started using a computer and that happened only a few times. Usually it just goes away. This time it kept coming back. So instead of logging in since my email is supposed to be automatic I opened the client properties and checked each tab the closed it and it worked. next time it check mail automatically it asked me to login again.
I ran a Scan with MSE and it has gone away.

I suspect that somehow I received a bit o code from some kind soul that would trigger this necessity hoping to track me logging in.
Its just a theory but it was persistent until I scanned. So I am posting to alert in case this is a thing.
