Hello,
For the past few days, when I go to the three forums I usually visit, I'm getting a message that says the connection is not secure, including on CCM.
However, when I open Firefox, my padlock is green, but as soon as I visit a forum, it has a red line through it or is absent, and when I check the site information, it tells me the connection is not secure. I'm on Windows 10. I'm not very skilled with computers.
Thank you in advance.
Configuration: Windows / Firefox 52.0

Hello,
In case you were talking about this... (if not, disregard my message):
If this message appears on important sites (banks), report this issue to the site in question. It is up to them to modify their site to ensure data confidentiality. Otherwise, don't pay attention to it.
If you want to remove this info bubble, check out this message:
In the Firefox address bar, type about:config
Click on Accept the Risk.
In the search field, copy/paste security.insecure_field_warning.contextual.enabled
Click twice on this line to change its value to False.
Close the window.
This only disables the warning message that appears at the login and password fields.

In case you were talking about this... (if not, disregard my message):
Firefox now displays a message on HTTP pages that offer to connect with a username and password. Users are alerted that their data may be compromised because it is not a secure page (HTTPS).
Mozilla is implementing strict security cookies. This prevents http (non-secure) sites from using the "secure" attribute for cookies. Staying on the security front, a warning message is now in place around http pages. It informs the user about the reliability of the connection with a service. This message appears if fields are filled out.
In short, if the user has to provide a username and password but the connection to the site is not secure, the browser will display an alert.
If this message appears on important sites (banks), report this issue to the site in question. It is up to them to modify their site to ensure data confidentiality. Otherwise, don't pay attention to it.
