why won't Firefox connect me to ighome.com, my home page, saying it is configured improperly, even though I have been using this site for over 5 years?

I used my home page, ighome.com, this afternoon on Firefox and have been using it for over 5 years. Suddenly I get this notice:

Your connection is not secure

Looking on your site I see that other people have had the same problem connecting to their bank after many years of no problems and other sites. I would hate to stop using Firefox and go back to Chrome. Please sort this.

This happens if you access the website via a secure HTTPS connection. This website doesn't have a certificate installed and only works with http:// So make sure you use the open http://ighome.com/ variant and not the secure https://ighome.com/ variant. If you use an extension that forces a secure connection then you need to create an exception.
