1). There is absolutely no problem with this site's security. A particular browser won't accept that www.the-boneyard.com is the same as the-boneyard.com.

2). If you get the pop up saying the site's name doesn't match the security certificates name, send me a pm or email (tom@emery.net) with a screen capture of the message, and what OS and browser you are using. Huge bonus if you can click view certificate and send me a screen capture.

3). If you get the pop up, try going to www.the-boneyard.com instead of the-boneyard.com. I can't imagine it'll work, but the support person I've been taking with said it's worth a try.

4). I just realized that if you are being blocked because of an invalid certificate, you won't be able to read this post, so ... never mind.

does this also apply to warning points? I keep getting a notice that says I have insufficient privileges to post in certain threads because of "warning points" but I don't think I have any?

I think those are just moderator locked threads. The only ones with sufficient privileges to post in those threads are mods

This is NOT the actual error but very similar to this. Cannot make it happen today:

Thanks for the info on the certificate problem.
Was forced to use my smartphone to read the BY because of the pop up certificate on my laptop.
