    Data Breach ?

    This site typically keeps me logged in. Today I was logged out and when I logged in Chrome popped a window recommending I change my password due to a data breach on the site...

    Anyone else have this happen to them?

    Any issues Mike?

    Chrome wanted me to change all my passwords recently, and allow them to manage them for me...I declined their kind offer and have had no issues......Ben

    I keep forgetting to mention that, when on this site, my laptop constantly warns me I'm on an "Unsecure Site."

    While those of us who are smugly superior MAC users , fully convinced of the sales pitch , that MACs are less likely to allow scammers , spammers and neer-do-wells into the hallowed circuits of our computers , bask in our freedom from such individuals [ although in truth we are liable to be hacked ] simply go on with our lives in that blissful childlike state , to this point , i have not seen the warning , nor have I had any problems with this site.

    It is probably an attempt to steal your password. I have not noticed any abnormal behavior.

    As to the unsecure warning, we are still running on HTTP, not HTTPS. When I find time and fingers, I intend to move the site to a newer server and enable HTTPS.

    I think pretty well, but a long way to go. I'll find out more when I see the surgeon tomorrow.

    Healing well, even the pretty kind, still sounds good to me.
