Account lock?

So I get off for ~1 hour and come back. I try and log in as usual and my account is locked. I follow the links, reset my password and all that fun and get back on. Not a single thing is missing, so I dare not think someone reported me as hacked. The only thing I have recently started doing is copy pasting my password from a desktop notepad into the WoW login window, simply because I've heard it is safer.

Do you log in to the game from more than one location, Lasilly? Example: Work, home, school?

If so, keep mind that we have implemented a security feature that will effectively protect your account against unauthorized access. Unfortunately I don't have additional information as to what exactly caused the account to be locked.

I highly recommend you check your computer security and advise you to get an authenticator for the maximum account protection.
