Was there just another password reset? - Page 2 - About the Forums

Sourceforge is a censored url, likely due to their shady history of adding malware to software installers: https://www.howtogeek.com/218764/war...u-can-help-it/

Heh, sorry Louis, the "goofy link" crack wasn't especially serious.

Frequent password changes just result in people using *less* secure passwords.

Sure, if those people aren't smart enough to use a password manager

Just use the password "pass123" on all sites and you should be fine

The people using password managers and real random passwords aren't the people you're trying to fix, when you're doing mandatory resets.

And those people you are trying to address, they are going to stop trying if you keep pestering them. Welcome to pass1234 passwords.

When I logged in today I got a pop-up message from Firefox that said the log-in was insecure and details could be compromised.
Clicking the message led me here https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Prote...fox/ta-p/27861

Never had this happen before.

Thanks Bobo, but when I use http the site won't load, works with other sites for me just not this one.
Any other ideas?

The page you linked just talks about a warning, and says that you'll still be able to log in - so you can't log in?

Use a different browser?

Thanks again for the response Bobo. Yeah, I can log in but it's unsecure. Bit of a pain in the arse to set up another browser just to use 2+2 tho'.
****ing teknology... why can't it just work dammit!

In that case, I did link you to the correct thread. Firefox is simply warning you that our site doesn't use https.
