Can't log into random HTTP (no S) sites. Get "Connection is Not Secure."
MOST of the time I can't log into www.wowhead.com, for one. It is NOT a secure site (IE: HTTPS). However, Firefox seems to think it is, OR I have secure browsing on, if there is such a thing. I do know there is Private Browsing, which I am not using. I have logged into wowhead over 2000 times before this started happening.
Technical Details say: CONNECTION NOT ENCRYPTED The website www.wowhead.com does not support encryption for the page you are viewing. Information sent over the Internet without encryption can be seen by other people while it is in transit.
When I go into the (i) > 'Page Info' popup, I only see 2 tabs General and Security. The others are missing.
PLEASE help me. I have been trying to solve this for about a month. The support website does not seem to have an answer, that I can find.

Good Day FredMcD!!
Thank you VERY much for leading me in the right direction.. The errors were caused by leftovers of Avast in my registry. After backing up, I search for all the firewalls I had tested. Only Avast left junk behind. Once the key was deleted, all my browsers have run perfectly for 2 days. (Now I can delete the extra browsers! )
YAY!! We can close the thread!!
Peace.. Lynlee

There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connections and send their own certificate.

This Connection is Untrusted is sometimes caused because the computer system clock is wrong. Check the time / date / time zone settings.
Thanks you for your response!! :)
I did have AVAST and Bitdefender for a short time. Ended up going back to Zone Alarm, because of its Antivirus and my familiarity with it. Hmm should I search the Registry for Avast and Bitdefender and strip them away if found??
My system clock is accurate..
Im having the same problem with IE and Safari.. :(
Will check out some of the other URLs you Posted..
Much Thanks.. Ta Ta.. Lynlee
