Site Security Certificate

[chris f]

I am receiving a warning regarding security certificate for F800GT forum. Can you fix it?

Likewise. My laptop did a windows update last night and assumed that was the cause.

It is the same with me. My Windows 7 "Ultimate" desktop was updated last night, too. But I don't know why that would cause Mozilla to go all Rambo when trying to access this site? Right now I am not getting that warning when I visit this afternoon. It only got it the first time I tried to logon in the morning. I might add that none of the other motorcycle forums that I have visited today resulted in the warning.

Same error. Using:

Android 10, Chrome.

In my case I logged on via Internet Explorer and thought Microsoft may have tighten up the security settings during the update, but having used Firefox and Chrome with same warning it must just be a coincidence that warning occurred after update.

Got pretty much same messages on my iPhone when logging on to the site. I bypassed it last night and all looks well atm.

I get this on both my laptop and tablet. One is windows 10, the other Android so it's not the operating system. I use Chrome on both but as others have posted the same problem with different browsers then I suspect it will need the site gurus to resolve it.

I am a member of another forum which had the same problem some time back - went on for months before it was fixed and there is almost no activity there now.

also on MacOS and Safari it's shown the same message, anyway the site doesn't seem to have any problem or anything that let thinking to a cyber attack.

Actually, it isn't fixed. When you bypass the security warnings by continuing here, your browser doesn't warn you the next time.

Here's what the Opera browser shows you.

I bypassed the security warning [Internet Explorer] in order to start this thread. On several subsequent occasions, including this morning, I still had the warning which tends to disprove your theory. Just tried again and got connected without warning. Also, just tried via Chrome on Android tablet and again connected OK without warning. Suggests to me issue fixed.

[Daboo]

Yes, it is fixed now. Note the difference in the two screen captures I've made. The old one said it was "Not Secure". The one below shows the padlock as it should.





I take some of this stuff very seriously. I spent 10 years working in IT at a large airplane company in Seattle and have a certificate in IT security.

Thanks Chris, or whoever fixed the issue. I get a bit rattled when warning screens come up, having lost a couple of laptop drives in recent years to what I presume was some kind of cyber attack. It was so much easier when we just wrote letters, eh?

Sorry for how long this took to repair guys. When the SSL cert expired, the message to renew was overlooked, causing the lapse. No attack or anything sinister, just need to figure out our auto-renweal

It's OK I was gone for a few days to the desert and didn't try accessing the site. I figured it was something beyond my computer.
