Title: Smol problem
Post by: Rafe-dreams on February 18, 2017, 05:55:58 am
Somehow my com thinks FH and the Login are "Not secure?" I'm not completely sure how to fix this. Because this never happened before.(The HTTP is crossed out in red.)

Is it the browser that pops up with a warning message that it isn't secure or your antivirus software?

No. Not at all actually. The not secure says: "You should not enter sensitive information on this site because it can be stolen by attackers." The thing is before this the website was secured.

The website is secure. There is no worry there. However, I'm still confused as to where the message is coming from. Is it within the browser window that you see it?

It did that with me and my computer seems to be fine. But if you're paranoid I recommend trying a different anti- virus software to see if the one you're using is too protective? (Like what mind does)

it sounds to me like the page isn't using https (note the S on the end there.) the https protocol (plain http won't.) will encrypt data sent to the server, so it is considered secure, within reason.
The login link should look something like this: https://feral-heart.com/login/index.php (note the https here!) if it still isn't using https, then I suspect some sort of browser incompatibility. Perhaps you should try another one? =3
Also as a side note, in my opinion antivirus typically makes you less secure since it increases the attack surface, for they are susceptible to bugs like any software out there (maybe even moreso!).
