O/T security

[glagys]

Just noticed that when I log in it says I’m trying to join an unsecure connection or something like that and I have a warning triangle at shrimpsvoices.co.uk
Or this something that need’s resetting at my end ?
Confused

It is safe to ignore! I promise I'm not trying to steal your information!

The 'SSL Certificate' expired a few years ago. Newer browsers are flagging this up as 'dangerous'. If you look by the URL, a 'secure' site has a key, or padlock symbol before the 'http' bit, this site hasn't. A SSL certificate used to be included in the hosting, but now they are charging extra. I have looked at buying it (an additional $25 per year, on top of about $130 already) but want to make sure if I do, it will be correctly configured, so I don't waist more money! Unfortunately, I paid for two years hosting, earlier this year, otherwise I'd look at moving somewhere else.

Basically, it is safe to ignore, and I may get around to sorting it eventually!
