Press and Hold Button!!

What is up with this new "press and hold" button to prove you're human when I go to the site?  I've never seen it before and it is not working so I can't even check on my store.

I had it happen maybe a week or ago when I had multiple tabs open because I was pulling hidden items back out. It ended up freezing everything, forcing me to use Ctr-Alt-Del to shut down and start fresh. I blamed the multiple tabs because they might indicate a bot at work. Do you, like many of us do, work with multiple tabs open? Another time, it showed up immediately when I switched to using my other computer. Regardless, whatever the thing is trying to prevent, what it's actually preventing is our trying to work.

It's definitely annoying.  Thank you for your reply and yes, I do work with multiple tabs open, although usually only 2-3.  It does seem to be working now.
