Odd warning

Anonymous
Jeff. Reporting incase this is an issue on your end but I have never received it on my end for any other website. After a minute I tried again and connected without an issue.

www.dcurbanmom.com doesn't support a secure
connection

You usually connect to this site securely, but Chrome couldn't use a secure connection
this time. An attacker might be trying to eavesdrop or modify your network connection.

We have correctly configured SSL which is what is meant by secure connections. You can confirm that by clicking the lock icon next to the address. I wonder if your Chrome browser is configured to use a proxy server for some reason. If so, that would explain the warning. Alternatively, someone is trying to do a "man in the middle" attack on you. Where are you trying to connect from?

On Chrome, next to the www.dcurbanmom.com, there should be a symbol that looks sort of like this:

._
_.

If you click on that after connecting to DCUM (assuming that you can connect), what does it say?

If you can't connect, does the error message give you a chance to view the certificate? If so, what does that say?

I haven't gotten it again.

When I click on it it says the connection is secure, so that's good.

On another matter, would you consider unblocking me from a different device?

This happens when you (or your school/work/criminal-hacker network admin) installs monitoring software on your device or your network. Basically yo are talking to someone else's software instead of talking directly to DDCUM.

Assuming that it was you who just sent me an IP address, that address is not blocked. Are you blocked, meaning that you cannot connect at all, or are you getting a "forbidden" message when you try to post?

That was me. I can't access DCUM on my iphone/safari. I get a message that says Safari can't open the page because the network connection was lost. When I refresh the page I get a HTTP status 404 not found.
I just assumed I was blocked.

I posted about this error a while ago too, others got the same message but now I always get it.

Can you use your phone and try to "report" this message. Let's see if you can do that,

I just sent a test through the Google app and it works there. So the issue seems to be a safari issue. Thanks for troubleshooting.

Can you try the same thing with Safari?

Just FYI, same thing happened to me yesterday from Macbook Chrome. Seems like it might have been a temporary issue...for whatever reason?

Which post did you try to report? I can't find anything in the logs.
