Add back Paul's error message from revision 219b3128f3d96b126a9ed9aff2d2f3277e69dbd4 (disapproved in revision e2fb4cc366c55b86f89304bddac780a92ff73394) with a slightly improved error message. Thanks for adding this in the first place, Paul! Sorry it took me months to re-instate it after I complained! Hopefully AOL won't start asking users to fill out CAPTCHAs in order to log in, because that would be messy (both our implementation and the user experience).
