Post by jcat »

Firefox gives me a warning every time I try to sign in saying the site is not secure and could be stolen . Help

Thanks for looking out for the forum.

I do see the same thing as well and here's more that I found:
Technical Details:
Connection Not Encrypted
The website does not support encryption for the page you are viewing. Information sent over the Internet without encryption can be seen by other people while it is in transit.
There isn't much to worry about, it's just a FYI, warning.

Thanks

Jack

it's just the "http" vs "https" the "s" refers to secure, which would be needed for say your bank, cc , or a site where you make a purchase. Not really needed at TT.

Sometimes at work, TT comes up as a blocked site because of malware. Not sure what that means.

Big-Bass, can you send me a screen capture? jip@tackletour.com
Maybe at work they have higher security set up, and perhaps flagging cookies as malware.
