[QUOTE="RonSanderson, post: 25891722, member: 77413"]Their SSL security certificate expired. It is used in conjunction with the HTTPS web address to operate within a secured layer of the internet. The certificate asserts that the site is actually the site it purports to be, so the IP address cannot be hijacked by someone else. I checked the certificate through my browser and saw that it had just expired a few minutes earlier. So I went ahead and bypassed the warning and continued. The site owner (Peter or his webmaster) needs to contact the service provider who issues the secure certificate and get it renewed. Then things will be just dandy again.
