When logging into the Ugly Hedgehog - Photography Forum I am advised that by typing my password
it is not secure, see below:
"Insecure password warning in Firefox
Firefox will display a lock icon with red strike-through red strikethrough icon in the address bar when a login page you’re viewing does not have a secure connection. This is to inform you that if you enter your password, it could be stolen by eavesdroppers and attackers.
Starting in Firefox version 52, you will also see a warning message when you click inside the login box to enter a username or password.

Note: When you start typing in your login information, the warning message can obscure the password entry box. You can press the Enter key after you type in your username (or click outside of the password area) to dismiss the warning".

I had problems in the past week with Norton and after a lengthy call my problem was that the Hogg is not a secure site.
