The certificate "error" is because it's self-signed and not commercial, which costs a chunk of change every year. We use SSL to avoid sending passwords in the clear and not for ecommerce purposes, so (apart from browsers complaining) there isn't any need for a trusted certificate. The alternative is to not use SSL (https:) which would avoid the error, but result in passwords sent in the clear.

IE 8 said there was a certificate error, unsafe to visit this site.

Overrode that, got the site with a red banner from IE 8 about the
certificate,
was told that this is a high signal to noise group.

Ironic, that, amidst the noise about Chinese scopes.

Might want to fix the certificate so unsubscribers can do so.

OB timenuts: Time marches on.
