Unable to sign on to a particular site because of the Robot images at sign in
I am unable to sign into Investopedia because of images that appear at the sign in. I don't know how to fix this problem.

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What are the exact error message(s) ?
This is probably about Google reCAPTCHA challenge that can be hard to solve.
I try to log in and I receive and up in the address bar I get a message that states that the site is not secure. I have included a screen shot. I tried to fix the problem, but I couldn't find anything that looks like what I am seeing. Thank you so much for your helpf and God bless! Karen
This is exactly what is happening.

Went the site and clicked on the images and it clear without problems. And closed and the login boxes were there.

I just went on Investopedia's website and tried to sign on and the same thing happened "recaptcha". Did you go on using Google or Mozilla? I am trying to get on using Mozilla and the problem has not been solved. Thank each of you for getting back to me. God bless!

If you're talking about the yellow triangle with an exclamation mark on the padlock : that's about "Mixed content" - you'll see that on pages where there are e.g. images, such as the Recaptcha pictures.
See this article :

Is there a way to disable this yellow triangle with an exclamation point so that I can sign onto this website? Thank you!
Do you have a problem with the reCAPTCHA pop-up and get the checkmark in "I'm not a robot" or do you otherwise have a problem to login?
Can you attach a screenshot of the login page?

@ cor-el :
The OP's screenshot shows the Captcha with image verification (cars, in this case).

That is just an information flag. Don't worry about it.
This is about loading an image via an open HTTP connection as you can see in the Web Console
- "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Web Developer

Loading mixed (insecure) display content “http://i.investopedia.com/content/dotdash.svg” on a secure page

This information flag is blocking me from signing in on the site. I am again including a screen shot and I am asking if someone can help me disable this function so that I can sign on. Thank you.

I didn't understand a single thing on this video, I am not a computer tech. Thank you for your input.

It is not the mixed content warning that is causing this; it is you not being able to solve the reCaptcha.
Unless somebody else here can come up with the perfect solution for you; maybe you could contact Investopedia :

Thank you sooooooooooooooooo much!
Fingers crossed that this problem will be solved soon - must be so annoying (understatement).
