I have just been made aware of a regular contributor who is having problems accessing the forum.
The problem is described:
Using the Windows 10 laptop about ten seconds after the first NWAN screen comes up it tries to access twn-weareoffers-com (the dashes are really dots) and I get a 'The connection for this site is not secure - uses an unsupported protocol' message. Not sure where this message is coming from - nothing else on the screen. Had a the same problem a few days ago but it went away. Don't have the problem on my Windows 8.1 machine. Don't have the problem on any other web-site.
There was an issue, maybe around a year ago?, that on acquiring NWAN forum , a pop-up box would warn that I was accessing an insecure site, This lasted a few days, just long enough for members to start commenting, and the problem went away. The problem likely being due to new internet screening being introduced by Google. This new issue is not the same though - is anyone also having the same, or similar, problem? Anyone with knowledge of a cause/fix?
Although nothing so serious around 1 in every 10 times I access NWAN I get a pop-up page from Pro-Boards asking if I accept their terms and conditions. I click over 'Yes' and I get access to the forum. It would be interesting to know if others are encountering this repeated pop-up too?
