Login Using Firefox
Anyone else have an issue when trying to login... Firefox is giving a message about being an insecure page which I already knew... Not a big issue with this forum I'm sure since it is public... I guess it is a good feature to let individuals know when trying to login into a page whether it is or is not secure... Just caught me off guard and was second guessing myself about a possible problem with the site... It appears all is well...

Apparently thats with their latest update, although I have not seen it pop up with my laptop. In order for me to get to that page I had to click on the site info icon to the left of the address bar and then click on more information. Supposedly most browsers are moving towards that direction in warning you.
This what you get with chrome by doing the above.

CO doesn't use https (who knows why not) so technically traffic going through the site can be intercepted. I wouldn't be overly concerned since you don't use a credit card on this site, but theoretically if someone is on the same network as you and you log in, they could potentially get your password.

I thought that was probably the case... Which isn't a bad thing, at least people will be forewarned if they had a security concern of the site they are about to visit... Thanks
I knew CO wasn't a secure site, that is why I didn't give it to much concern... I basically was curious about how big an issue it may or may not become... Like you said, nothing financial passes through the site... Thanks
