I should have mentioned that I use Chrome. Using Chrome, I was getting that message but now I do not get that and the site loads fine. I also tried using two other browsers and the site loads fine, so perhaps there was a change made to the site.

Thats weird. There shouldn't be any security issues. Maybe Chrome has an issue my my web host? I'm not sure.


Well this news to me, very odd...

I have Heimdal installed (bought a lifetime key some years ago). I get:

I can always whitelist the site of course, but just letting you know at least one security company is still blocking you.

I get a similar warning message, and the reason is that current-day browsers are expecting sites to have a valid certificate so that TLS encryption can be used with (the connection to) the site. In other words, current browsers expect you to be able to do 'https://' instead of 'http://'. Any unencrypted connection is considered a security risk these days.

Wasn't aware of this. Interesting...

After some checking seems my webhost has disabled SSL on the free accounts, which I use. I think they use to offer it for all but its just for paid accounts now.

Kind of sucks but is what it is.

Well thanks for the feed back. :-)

No problem.

The following might or might not help you, but : organizations like "Let's Encrypt" [1] will give you totally free certificates. It may require some IT skills on your own part (if you are self hosting), or a hosting provider that will work with/support Let's Encrypt. You might want to check that out, to see if any of it is applicable to you.
