The RITAN website was blocked by my computer security protection.  It says that some certificate has expired.  I was able to get around it, but probably others are having the same problem.

Yes, I got the same message from evil google. As my Jewish friends tell me, "Coincidence is not a kosher word "

Yep … I got this message last night … the security lock was missing … its not just google but duck duck go also gave out the warning.  Then I used my cell phone to check the website … the hacker wanted me to click on their special button to update something.  No waaay ….    I thought I was the only one having these issues.

Certificate is valid until Nov 22nd so that's ok.   Could have just been an anomaly.

I hadn't noticed before, but when I go to fivedoves.com, it says it is an insecure site.  So, on five doves I can still get to it, but last night I couldn't get to this one.  What is the difference?

I got the same message that Geri posted but ignored it as we were in the middle of relocating our connection and just thought it was part of the upheaval :mdrmdr:

Any website that only starts with only http is not considered secure.  If it starts with https it is supposed to be secure.

I found this on google "The difference between the two protocols is that HTTPS uses TLS (SSL) to encrypt normal HTTP requests and responses. ... A website that uses HTTP has HTTP:// in its URL, while a website that uses HTTPS has HTTPS://."

So, the https ones are encripted.
