Based on the fact you're asking that, I would say because I misunderstood
the message. The "...once you have remedied the problem." lead me to
believe I'd have to come up with some form of solution before contacting
the team there.
I can report there too, if you wish.

I came to a conclusion based on too many assumptions. That was a bad
move. Mea Culpa.

Indeed, v128. When I use Pale Moon (PM henceforth) in native mode, I
don't get the abuse warnings. I'd forgotten that I've been using FF
compatibility mode, TBH. My fault again.
Looking at the PM support forum gave me some information I was unaware
of; I can change the version of FF that the PM user agent string will
use. Having done that, and setting a much more recent version, I can
confirm that I don't receive the abuse warnings any more.

No apology necessary, Adam. I completely understand. Beating the bots
is an ever evolving challenge. Just as beating spam and viruses are.
You're playing 'catch-up' to an ever moving target. It's all well
beyond my capabilities.
Thank you for your response, which prompted me to do a more thorough
analysis. I'll try to do better analyses before I send any reports in
future.
Sorry for the noise. And thank you, again.
