Default The web address is saying not secure!

Has this changed? Is there something on my end I need to do to make it secure? My other sites I go still say secure! Thanks

Previous post about this problem #14 pretty much sums it up

It appears mine does also, as the "non-secure" icon disappears. However, according to the info in the referenced thread, it is the log-in info that is not secure and could be compromised.

You're probably running Firefox, as I am. That message popped up after it upgraded itself. As above,' it goes secure when I login.

Just my two cents from working as in the IT security admin field for quite a number of years. The only thing that is not secure is that your password could be "sniffed" by someone with access to your home network or on the host server side. There is really nothing to worry about beyond that. No one can gain access to your computer, see what you are doing or load nasty stuff on your computer because a SSL certificate has lapsed. One highly unlikely exception being setting up a fake PY Forum website, but there would not be any payday for doing that.

I stay logged in all the time here. I've not seen any security issues pop up with IE...... so far.

There certainly is a payday given a large percentage of people use the same passwords for many many sites !

PY needs to fix this SSL certificate expiration.

I've not seen that. Thanks for posting it Jim. Looks like someone needs to renew it.
