Title: SITE SECURITY
Post by: nedwood on 11 June 2017, 04:58:26 pm

A question for Andy Meldrum. I have just gone to log on and my computer protection has flagged the site up as not being secure. Andy can you tell me if this is the case please.

My worry is that it has never done this before ?, strange that it`s flagged it up out of the blue :( .

Please enable HTTPS if you can.

Until it's enabled, people should NOT use any password on this site they have for others sites. Each time you log on the password can be sniffed in the network traffic.

The browsers didn't post those warnings before. Now they do.

As long as you don't use the same password for other, less important stuff than foc-u, like bank account and similar, you're fine.

Even with HTTPS, it's better to not have the same password.
