When I try to access my personal OneDrive  (not the business one with office365 E3) in Publisher 2013,

I get this request for username and security for d.docs.live.net.  What is it?

Username and password does not work:

if I click cancel, it will simply go to my OneDrive.  (although I am not sure if it is the local or the online one.)

Can anyone tell me what this is exactly?  

If I go directly to  d.docs.drives.net  I get this:

Any clues.  Any ides on how to stop it?

    Apparently it's the OneDrive front end that is presented when you connect from within Office. It is a legitimate Microsoft Server, I just assume it was intended to display a different name, but some Microsoft programmer didn't have her coffee that morning. Here's a thread on the same subject: What is docs.live.net?
