My homepage server has a lock with a red slash. this has not happened before. It's always been secure. why is this happening now?
I noticed recently that my internet server has a lock with a red slash thru it. I have CenturyLink as my internet provider. I contacted them and they told me to get in touch with you.

This could mean that there is mixed content on the page.
You can see a special padlock at the left end of the location/address bar.
- a padlock with a strike through means that mixed active content is blocked.
- a padlock with an exclamation mark attached means that mixed passive content (e.g. images) is present, but not blocked.
The shield icon, previously used for mixed active content, is now used for Tracking Protection.

What is the address of the page?
Usually you would see that icon if the page has an HTTP address with a login form, and a lock if the page has an HTTPS address. Firefox usually hides http:// to simplify the display, but if it's a secure site, you will see the https://.
