"Privacy Concerns"

[Tio_Narratore]

When I try to log on through the 'Bulletin' board link on the Literotica.com opening page, I get a 'Privacy Issues' notice that I cannot enter because someone may be trying to compromise my password or other security. The notice offers a few buttons for more information, but has no indication of where the message (and block) originates. I've ignored the notice, and used the 'Stories & Pics link which does allow me to enter the forum section.

Any similar experiences or thoughts as to what may be going on?

Thanks all.

I got this message from Firefox when I used the "Bulletin Board" link:

The owner of forum.literotica.com has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.

Different message, but probably the same cause.

Looking further into it:

forum.literotica.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate expired on December 5, 2018, 9:31:38 AM GMT-7. The current time is December 6, 2018, 8:42 AM.

Yes this is a known issue with their SSL certificate. Apparently Manu is aware and working on it: http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=1490932

There have been some reports of Lit having an invalid certificate. Someone posted some stuff on the Tech forum. I'm assuming Manu has seen it. This sounds different so you might pass a note along to him with a link to where you are getting the message or even a screenshot.

This is the same message as I get, but without note of the security certificate expiry.

Thanks again all; we'll just wait and see if it's ok later.

I get the Invalid Certificate message on my Opera browser. I tell it to connect anyway but it's annoying.

Got this yesterday, PM'ed Manu and Laurel. This morning there is a thread about it on the Tech forum. Manu said he's aware of the problem, but also said it would be fixed momentarily, that was at 1:21am this morning.

Also... The just means that a secure connection can't be made, therefore the use of https can be used, so the site will use http instead.

Update: I've stopped receiving Invalid Certificate notices. Whew. But https still doesn't work. Now everyone can see my kinks. Oy.

I ran into this yesterday. I bypassed the warning assuming it was just an administrative issue that hadn't been addressed yet. Seems fine today.

Oddly enough, I've got a lot of malware, ad-block, script-block filters on my browser...and Lit is one of the cleanest sites I use. For example; there are only two scripts indicated for the site...one for literotica.com...the other for google.com I allow the lit script but not google and the site works just fine.

Something to do with the SSL certificate. They fixed it.

Got a similar message yesterday. It seems to be fixed this morning (Friday) at 9.50 am our time in Sydney.

And for Brit speakers, Zeb's momentarily does not mean 'just for a moment' - he means 'straight away.' I think.

Https still does not work.

For awhile for me it's said not secure in my url. And by awhile I'm talking at least a few months. Really sucks when I'm somewhere trying to use the free wifi because it won't connect at all since it's not secure.
Figured it was just something new everyone else knew about so I didn't mention it.
I use Chrome BTW.

Thought of a couple other issues I have.
I can't log in at all on my phone. Just keeps bringing me back to the log in page.
And I don't stay logged in her in the forums. It logs me out after like 15 minutes. Drives me crazy because I'm usually doing several things at once and it's a pain to keep logging in to reply to messages or to posts.

 

[Zeb_Carter]

Yep, back to normal. No message or goofy stuff in the address bar.

Https works now. My Opera browser says LIT is secure. Whew.
