    Default Site Not Secure?

    I am using Firefox as my search engine and when I log into Spyderlovers, it gives me a message that says the site is not secure and my login information could be compromised. It just started doing this today. I am concerned about this. Anybody else seeing this?

    Thanks!

    All that really means is that the site is using "http" instead of "https" (the 's' is for 'secure') and isn't encrypting the communications back and forth. In Chrome, it shows a small 'i' in a circle next to the page url; if you click that Chrome also says the site isn't secure.

    Technically anytime you enter a username/password in a non-secure site there is a possibility that it could be intercepted and stolen. That's one of the reasons you shouldn't use the same username/password combination at multiple web sites.

    Lamont could fix it by adding what's called an "ssl certificate" to the site but unless he was accepting credit card payments directly in the site, it probably isn't worth the extra money it would cost him.

    I was using Chrome, but it kept on crashing when on Spyderlovers, even after uninstalling and reinstalling. I have become less and less a fan of Chrome over time due to similar issues in the past.

    No but if you look closely up in the address bar you should see a little i in a circle.
    If you click on that i, you will see similar information.

    This site is not equipped to make a secure connection (https).

    Unless you do any financial transactions here it should not be a big deal........should.
