Recently I've noticed this up in the address bar for Hunting Country, at least on the laptop. I don't know if the phone or tablet show something different because http/https isn't showing in the address bars on those. But I don't get security warnings for HC on those like I do for some other sites, either.

So, what to do about the laptop connection?

Luv2 right now:

Just ignore it. That's what I always do. I mean, what's the worst thing that can happen? You've already sent all of us plenty of email viruseses over the years. Or is it viri if it's plural?

Anything Alex has setup has never really been secure anyway.

Pretty sure it's viri.

"Veni, vide, viri," if I'm remembering my high school Latin correctly ...

The past-present participle is subordinate to the nominative, except when used with objective pluri. This is easy to remember once you understand that the oblique case encompasses only the accusative, dative and objects of a preposition. The genital case is a whole different story.

QED

I always thought dangling participles were naughty.

[QUOTE]Shooting an elephant in my pajamas, my dangly bits needed some new ones.

Driving to Walmart, my boys were crying out for a house.

Pushing my buggy up and down the aisles, Cher sang "I Hope You Find It" on the overhead.

Paying at the register, the new elephants caused quite a scene, but no one said anything about the pajamas or the briefs.

THE END

You know meds and alcohol are a no no, right?

Are you using the Chrome browser on your laptop? And if so, did it get updated within the last 1-2 months? I ask because Google added functionality just like you describe (the "not secure" message) to the Chrome release they pushed out at the end of July. If so, it's nothing to worry about. They're just being obnoxiously nanny-ish.
10.) Swamp Fox - 09/25/2018
Yes, I'm using Chrome. I don't recall upgrading Chrome specifically, but it does have a different look to it.

The little information button talks about trying to get to a https version of the site, but when I try it says something like "not available."
