In a post yesterday regarding difficulties w Safari-Firefox was suggested....
I downloaded Firefox since I was unable to access the greatest page or lobby w Safari. I never had any problems before. When I went to post a thank you using Firefox, a security warning appeared saying being sent over an uncrypted connection and could be read by third parties.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it of concern?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

1. Safari works fine for me
You might want to check the preferences. In Safari, there's a place where you can check, "Ask before sending a non-secure form to a secure website."

8. I like Camino
I use it all the time, but there's at least one reason not to dismiss Firefox: extensions. Camino doesn't support Firefox extensions, since it doesn't support XUL.

5. FYI: Using Safari here and I can access both the lobby and the greatest page
I'm running version 3.0.3

Maybe you can try and update your version if it's older than that.

:shrug:

Good luck!
