The warning isn't coming up anymore. Just did an update of Firefox so maybe that was the problem.

Nah I still have to go "advanced" to get in, I'll have to figure out my Microsoft Edge info.

Works fine with chrome  so looks like its a local issue with your PC.

There is obviously a problem with the security certificate and its currency. Google/Chrome and Microsoft are understandly paranoid about security as is our own virus checker and as soon as something isnt right they either issue a warning or block us.

my mobile Android is obviously happy, i dont have the maximum security settings.Our desktop (windows) is much more secure and is i"ntermittently " happy to log into ozvmx.

Our powets to be will obviously need to look into this.Pls excuse spelling and grammar as i am doing this on my mobile

I believe you have hit it on the head Peter.  Its an issue with an over zealous security program on the users device  marking the page as a possible threat for some minor issue with the page or the host. Lowering your security settings or marking the page as safe should see the issue resolved.

I run low settings on windows preferring to make an educated choice rather than allow a glorified spell checker to make choices for me. I dont run an AV at all for much the same reason as annoying false positives but I do have malware programs set to scan  quarantine and ask for instruction once a week. And before someone says its risky i am microsoft certified in various platforms.

Pokey, good to hear we have people on board with the skill set  Many years since I was involved with Microsoft and computing security.
