Security warning when signing in to VK

[Findm-Keepm]

Make sure you are not trying to access it via https://

I have to "bookmark" the plain-jane "www.vidoekarma.org"

Firefox, since version 50 or so, has defaulted to https:// and TLS for all websites. There is probably a setting somewhere to disable that, but for security, I just go with the https:// for all sites. Keeps the script worms away. If a site has no SSL certificate, it will throw the "this site is not secure" (true dat....), but for videokarma and ARF, safe enough for me, but I have to use NoScript and UBlock Origin to keep the page load times down - the scripts (read:Google Ads) add several Megabytes of load time. http://www.videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=269388

Chrome and Edge do likewise - they default to https - HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is the term. https://www.owasp.org/index.php/HTTP...ty_Cheat_Sheet

I remembered an internal IT document explaining it, probably to keep down on the IT guy having to visit every desktop when there was a problem.

If you are accessing from a mobile device, Tapatalk may work better fo you . YMMV.
