    Re: Secure Site

    What information is stored on this site that would require it to be HTTPS?

        We have an SSL certificate but we've had a hard time moving everything over to the HTTPS side. It should be an easy switch but it's breaking something. It's a work in progress but it's up near the top of the list.

              Chrome browsers now require https, people who use chrome would not be able to view the site without a certificate. Google goes off the deep end sometimes, not every site needs to be https but they think it does. Go figure!

                In my personal opinion, Chrome is the worst browser around.

                      Could not agree more! It is also very intrusive into your system [computer]. Run WireShark while using Chrome and you will find it is accessing files on your computer it has no business accessing. It is one of the ways that Google has built-up such a large database of user info and chrome users have agreed to it in the licensing agreement! Big Brother anyone?

                          If you're clever and you know how, you can use the google and other hacker snooping against them.
                          Google and some others might get a real big brother shock to their systems.

                          A data base is only as good as its integrity. If the data base carries corrupt data, then the integrity of the advert sales proceeds from corrupt data is worthless. Business will not advertise with agencies whos data integrity is compromised.
                          Place as much corrupt data on as many website as you want. Download junk link websites and store them on your web browser.
                          Subscribe to random email sites and give those sites a bogus email address to a dead email account. When 6 billion people do the above. They'll run out of server CPU access and storage capability chasing junk...

                          And there are other ways to bliz their snooping which I decline to share...

                          It can work both ways....
