I have only been using this site for a few months. I use Chrome as my browser and the address line has always had "not secure" before the URL.

I look forward to admins' response,

Even when I try using:

https://forums.maxperformanceinc.com

I get redirected to this:

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected an issue and did not continue to forums.maxperformanceinc.com. The website is either misconfigured or your computer clock is set to the wrong time.

It’s likely the website’s certificate is expired, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

My computer clock is set to the right time.

Started happening yesterday for me -
can't get here by clicking on a link in a PY email notification .
Using Google Chrome
But can get here using a bookmark, no probo.

" A private connection to forums.maxperformanceinc.com can't be established because your computer's date and time are incorrect. "


NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID
Issuer : Sectigo RSA Domain Validation Secure Server CA
Expires on : Jan 29 , 2021


Then in bottom right corner there is a button that can be clicked to
Update Date and Time
but thats where the Chinese get you - if you click that

Same here. Browser says site not secure. Using advanced and accessing site shows "not secure" warning and https either red high-lighted or red high-lighted w. strike-through text.

I don't and haven't had since shortly after the debacle we had when the site was nearly unusable.

If I remember correctly it was explained that the website’s certificate had expired.

Not sure if this correlates but I got this message, 'Dark Web Alert - Compromised Email Address'.

I got it via email from CreditWise. This is the only unsecure site I visit, can we address this?

If it's a matter of funds perhaps we can come together and solve the problem.

I couldn't log in this morning either, just got the site is not secure info. I had to use a different link than what I've used for years, that took me to a sign in page to get back on.

It also had this in the warning message if that helps to figure it out: NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID

It’s google. Disregard it.
They want like 70$ a year. My forum is the same. Bring a blanket. I’m not paying either.

Default Our browser is Firefox and it is set to https: only.

We get the message below:

HTTPS-Only Mode Alert
Secure Connection Not Available

You’ve enabled HTTPS-Only Mode for enhanced security, and a HTTPS version of forums.maxperformanceinc.com is not available.

Learn More…
What could be causing this?

Most likely, the website simply does not support HTTPS.
It’s also possible that an attacker is involved. If you decide to visit the website, you should not enter any sensitive information like passwords, emails, or credit card details.

If you continue, HTTPS-Only Mode will be turned off temporarily for this site.

Yeah, the same here with MS Edge. I get this every time.......

Your connection isn't private
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from forums.maxperformanceinc.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards).
NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID

I don't have to log in. I just get the above all the time for every move I make in the forums. LOL
