blocked from displaying content?
« on: May 06, 2013, 11:36:30 pm »
I am getting a message that this website (Forvm) is blocked from displaying content with security certificate errors. Although I am usually lurking, I am on Forvm just about every day and have never had this happen. Some areas like My Forvm won't display at all and others I can see but it is still blocking content. Has anyone else had this issue or does anyone know of a way to fix it?
I have tried Mozilla and Iexplorer and get similar messages on both.
Any insight is appreciated!

I don't know what this could be.  Anyone else getting this?

It looks like it's your computer's settings.

Certainly looks like it's a settings issue on your end Robin. Check your Firefox security settings and see if anything has recently changed. I use Firefox and have never had any issues with Forvm.

Looks like it was only a my computer problem- namely letting my nephew use it to do his homework!
He changed the date by accident to 2010. I guess this renders all site certificates as out of date or no good:tongue:

Thank you both- Robin

Sometimes you do get this, in this case you can just click continue, even if it's not recommended. It's not unusual for certificates to expire so that a site is without a valid certificate for a few days or weeks, it happens even to competent webmasters.
