Without a specific reason for the security message, there is nothing for me to investigate. Such information is usually available in the browser, either through a link on an error page or by clicking the security icon in the address bar. Which method is applicable depends on the browser being used as well as the severity of the error.
This site's security certificate is up-to-date and the site is scanned for malware and hacks on a regular basis, but security notifications may not be the fault of site being visited. Browser plug-ins can cause problems and can be vectors for malware. I don't use browser plug-ins for that reason. In some cases, images with http:// protocol links embedded in posts can flag an error, although I've not seen an instance of this here.
Out of date browsers and operating systems can also be the source of false reports. Note the error message at the top of thread says, "may not be trusted by your operating system." This is because the operating system has to have some underlying information to determine whether a presented security certificate is valid. If that information is out-of-date a proper validation can't occur. In the case of the report at the top of the this thread, the OS reporting the problem was Android 4.4 from six years ago which is no longer supported. The most current Android version is 9.0.
If you encounter a security issue on this site, you should report it by sending me a private message, including the URL on the page it occurred, when it occurred, and the precise wording of the error message received.Last edited by Admin; 06-03-2019, 07:17 AM.
