Not Secure

[Rianne]

Firefox log in still says not secure

I tested Reditt (yuk) and it is lock and key secure. Why is that. It's a terrible forum.

the bbs software is not setup for encryption beyond the login would be the most reasonable explanation.

Which is what the forum Admin said in post #20 and post #23 above.

Here's what I'm finding (Chrome):

As seen here, the URL includes the https (see status bar. The mouse is hovering over a thread link):

However, if I click it, it removes the https. If I do a "Copy Link Address" I find that it indeed copies the https, but when I go to that URL, the https is removed.

Interesting and funny. Today I receive an email through gmail notifying me of a reply to this thread and when I open it and click on the link I receive the following message.....

Suspicious link
This link leads to an untrusted site. Are you sure you want to proceed to www.early-retirement.org?
Back Proceed

I've never seen this message before but it's certainly appropriate that it would pop up here. Apparently Google is concerned about the site's security as well as some of us.
