Unsecured site?

mojave30cal · #1 07-02-2018, 06:17 PM

I got a new computer late last year, and I am using Mozilla Firefox. Every time I try to log on to this Forum, I get a warning box saying this site is not secured. As a result I haven't been on this site for a while using my desk top computer, but rather use my phone to do so. Any idea what I can do to fix this? Thanks.

Make sure you are using the newest version of Firefox.
Log off.
Clear cache and cookies.
Close Firefox, then reopen.
Log back in and tell us what happens - you should be good to go.

I'm using the latest version of Firefox. And I've always used the latest version soon as it came out.

I've been getting that "unsecured" warning every time I log in. Been getting it for years. Got it today when I logged in to post this comment. Doesn't matter if I've cleared cache/cookies/history or not.

Then you have other issues. Most likely with your virus protection software though it could also be Windows which is notorious for having these problems crop up, disappear and then crop up again. For the past 8(?) months it's been giving me a error on my P drive when Windows first opens. I'd fix it - if I had a P drive. Hacking into Windows, reassigning another drive P, then deleting it cured it for about a week. I've hated Windows since version 2.1 but I dislike Mac even more.

Thanks for the info guys. I had lots of problems last year with my old computer and my credit card got hacked twice. I have been very careful this year, and so far so good. I still want to be able to access this Forum on my desk top computer. I'm in the process of following the advice of the moderator with to cLear the cookies etc.
