I would get this "view certificate" message every now and then before.

But lately it has been more often, and when I click continue, it just pops up again....one time repeatedly.

I haven't been to any porn sites or anything that would cause this on my end.....

Just wondering if there has been any changes....or if it needs to be investigated or eradicated.

Thanks.

I was getting this too. McCaffery or something like that. On my phone.
Go into app manager and shut it down. Samsung phone.
 
Is it a security warning from windows? Or is it a security warning from some other software? Or is it a pop-up like a cleverly designed ad?

Android....

It just says...

There is a problem with this sites security certificate.
With 2 buttons..
Don't allow (or something)
And continue.

I always hit continue and it jumps me right threw.

Now it takes 2 hits.
And one time like six.

It's not really a problem for me...

Unless it is..

Just figure you wanna know before it gets worse.

I'll keep you posted.

So far so good.

Call your host provider, the website security certificate needs to be updated.

It's a common problem, no big deal.
 
Never had that...o_O

You mean when posting here?

Just seems strange that some people would get the error... and others do not.

I test the site with different browsers - never gotten a security error.

Me neither.
Whatever that means (I suck at computers)
 
I only get it after visiting midget porn sites. I wonder if that is the problem.
 
Ok here's the skinny...

I don't have (have not purchased) a SSL security certificate for this site. I haven't felt the need because I don't feel there is any important data that needs to be encrypted/securely transmitted. (For example I am not selling anything, asking for credit card info, asking for home addresses, etc). Because there is no installed SSL security certificate, your browser may respond with a warning IF you have your browser set up to warn you if you are visiting a web site over an "insecure" connection. That's all it is.

If I (for any reason) decided to sell anything on the site (bonsainut t-shirts anyone?) I would purchase and install a safety certificate to create secure, encrypted connections between your browser and the site.
 
Hell yeah shirts!

I'm a Nut shirts!

Save the cash and headache. Link & market them here but
make the place of purchase amazon or some such. No fee
for you to SSL. Just saying. I've gotten it a couple of times. No biggie.
