Solosuck warning message

For some time I have been getting this message while visiting this forum:

Your connection is not private

This server could not prove that it is www.solosuck.com; its security certificate expired in the last day. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection.

Yeah - sorry - the hosting company is working on getting that fixed.

It is really not a problem to ignore the warning - the only websites where it's crucial to have the security certificate are the ones where you're entering really private info, like credit card numbers, etc.

Yeah, I've never had issues with this site. Make sure your antivirus is up to date and your OS is updated as well, then try again.

Now I get this:

Web sites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for solosuck.com. The certificate is only valid for www.solosuck.com.

I have had this problem lots of times, and of course I've stayed away. There have been big gaps where I just haven't tried to access the site at all. :cry:

It should be fixed now. I'm sorry about this - the hosting company seems to be having some growing pains...

But: once again - It is really not a problem to ignore the warning - the only websites where it's crucial to have the security certificate for are the ones where you're entering really private info, like credit card numbers, etc.

In most web browsers, there'll be an option to ignore the warning (sometimes you have to click on an "advanced" or similar link to get to it). It is safe to do that with this website.
