Morisato Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Your connection is not secure The owner of https://www.neowin.net has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website. This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox may only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate. https://www.neowin.net uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate expired on Thursday, August 24, 2017, 4:59 PM.

Can add a cert exception in Fx. Not in Chrome though. I'm using Fx. I used to be able to but today it simply won't allow me to visit the site at all. Probably different versions. So I am forced to use Safari today and it is worse than any other browser when it comes to comments and the forum. NEOWIN remains the only site I have issues with and the annoying thing is that the issues are different in different browsers. e.g. Safari won't let me post a comment. I can press the button and it changes state but nothing else happens after that. In Firefox, the problems are with quoting other comments and in Edge it's just clunky and prone to long lock-ups.

I created a shortcut w/ the flag just for Neowin until the issue has been resolved. Nashy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premgenius Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Woosa.....the admin will pick it up and resolve this, its not critical if your not able to get onto Neowin for a few hours, I'm sure y'all have other things to keep you actively engaged Happy Friday!

Possibly, the same happened again. +Raze and Nashy 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
