The world is not beautiful: And that, in a way, lends it a sort of beauty.

~Kino's Journey

Ever since I started using Firefox, I've been getting this message when i go to bungie.net(although it only appears the first time i go each time i start my computer(also, puush links are perfectly safe))

So, is there anyway to get rid of this message? Am I doing something wrong?

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

It does that, you get used to it. Does the same on Safari.

Do you sign in to your email on Hotmail/Outlook then you come to Bungie.net?

The sign in page is the secure part, while bungie.net isn't an https:// site. It's basically just saying, "o hay. Uhm, you won't be on an https:// anymore. kay?"

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

I've had it for months, it hasn't done anything bad.
You'll get used to it OP.

Happens for everyone using Firefox. Something to do with Windows Live ID I'm pretty sure. Nothing to worry about.

Oh good, although i'm on https right now, shouldn't it not be doing that?

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

You're not doing anything wrong, Firefox has always spouted that message because they care.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

They're trying to warn you about the Flood.

If it annoys you it can be disabled by pasting about:config in your address bar and searching for "security.warn_viewing_mixed", and double clicking on the same.

It's slightly more secure to leave it on so you don't accidently enter your password in a counterfit site.

Should you choose to disable this feature it is imperative that you do not touch anything else in about:config, at least without making sure you know what will happen.

That is the "PostToInsecureFromSecureMessage" warning and can't be suppressed.

You will get that warning if you go from a secure https connection to an insecure http connection and POST data entered in a form on a secure site is send to an http server.


Found that googling. :)

Apparently in older versions (pre 2.0) of Firefox, it was suppressible. Now it isnt. It's just a wordy way of saying that the login page has an "https" and bnet is "http".

Is it weird if some of the pages I go on are secured?
