Security Issues?
#1
Question 
Security Issues?
Nevermind, I found the problem. It looks like Internet Explorer is a failure.
So I downloaded Firefox and it's working fine.

After this latest password update my computer insists that AFs are insecure. I am terrible with computers, but I do understand that it has something with the HTTP prefix in the web address bar. I went to security on my old, busted-ass computer, but all it told me was to lower the security. I did that, it didn't help.
Lastly, I tried putting this site on my safe list so it would ignore all security provisions- that didn't work at all. It wanted me to put a HTTPS instead of HTTP, but when I did it didn't help and moreover caused more popups declaring I had put this "HTTPS AFs" on my safe list and this wierd "HTTP AFs" was trying to access it.
I have these popups every time a change a page within the forums, and it annoys me to no end.
Any help? Is this fixable?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone might be able to provide.

*AFs is shorthand for Atheist Forums.
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.
