I ignored a Security certificate warning pop-up on this site & logged in anyway. Anyone tell me what that's about? & should I be concerned?

We don't use any security certificates here, so not sure where/how you got such a warning on the forums...? A URL would be helpful.

Dr. John and crew,
Do the photos below help with this? I am not sure if this is the same thing as the original poster is getting or others, but this is what I am getting when I try to go to PC on my phone. It says that the Security Certificate isn't from a trusted Authority. Which is concerning. Secure Site Trust Seals For your Website by eTrust Pro Organization unit: GT77341167 Issued by GeoTrust DV SSL CA Organization GEOTRUST INC Validity: Issued on Monday, Feb 17 of 2014 Expires on Thursday April 21 of 2016 Address: http://www.etrust.pro/cgi-bin/trust/...?ID=492;size=M

the security warning on my mobile devices is letting me know when I am entering a non secure /non private website so that I know what ever I do on that website is available to the public. I have the choice to select whether or not I want to continue going into that non secure /non private website or not, and whether I want to read what android found when they searched for the SSL (secure Socket Layer) certificate. psych central isnt a private forum so i get that notice every time I use my mobile device and because I know through the notice this site isnt private I am very careful not to post anything I would not want just anyone to know about me. my own choice is to select continue when I get the notice. |

Some mobile devices aren't programmed with the correct root security certificates to recognize a valid SSL certificate. Unfortunately, that's a problem with the mobile device.
While our site is available via https for the forums, unless you have a specific reason to access the site through that URL, we recommend accessing our site via regular http://forums.psychcentral.com In any case, the warning is safe to ignore. DocJohn

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
