the site has been down for a month.
are you just learning of this?

since that page (and website) doesn't exist, try ecardmodels.com
which is redirected to a new page.

and those types of security warnings are just browser responses to websites that are not "secure".
Any webpage that is "unsecure" will give that warning.
*Secure meaning "paid for" a certain level of encryption.
Unfortunately encryption does not guaranty that the site is actually safe to use.
Just a higher level of security which is better when financial and personal information is required.

No!, I'm not just, "learning this" however, I've never seen this warning before where it says that it's a, "security risk", thanks for the explanation Dave... I'll bookmark this new link..

I found a similar thing yesterday. Searched for ecardmodels (using Chromium - first image), clicked the link and got the 'privacy' warning. Whenever I'm accessing a 'Not secure' site I usually just get notification in the header (third image).

First time I've ever seen this particular screen, so you're right FRD, there is something unusual about it.

lol theres nothing unusual about it....ecardmodels is not there!
The fact that the site itself isn't where it should be, will return a false warning of a suspect address.
You are automatically being redirected to another webpage that is nothing to do with ecm.
And any searched link to any page of the old site will be redirected to some other page
or error message or less than secure page of a different address.

You're reading too much into this...the website is completely gone.
Thats the error.
You're being redirected...thats the privacy error.
Theres nothing "new" or unusual about it.

This is exactly why we redirected the domain name to a new webpage, that is safe, and has an explanation (of sorts).

I like the new redirect. I didn't know models as small as Ray builds used enough glue to stain the carpet.

Ray's models use only glue...too small for any paper. He just uses glue.
