Is anybody else getting the message "this page contains insecure content"? It started a couple days ago and pops up every time I go to open a new discussion. I always touch "don't load" but wonder what I'm missing!?
I assume you are apple IOS or Google Chrome? In any event it has to do with Adobe updates to Flash. Only Apple and Google seem to beunable to make a browser that works with the internet. There are some mobile browsers (I'm not at home) that are more compatible and for IOS there is foxbrowser
Well … I’m using IOS, and sometimes Chrome, and it seems to be working OK for me. So maybe it’s something else.
You may need to download the Adobe updates too. My work computer has the same problem, and I am not allowed to download the updates myself.
Flash and Java are two of the biggest security threats for computer. Java was on it way out the door until Google, with android platform, revitalized it. Most of your browser problems are because of flash and java. Computing would be a better place with these two abominations gone.

That is perhaps the most brilliant post ever on lwpsa.

About three days ago, the tablet I used which kept getting that "insecure content" msg stopped working. The screen doesn't come on. I knew it had about 75% charge when I put it down....it wasn't dropped or anything, but when I picked it up to use it, it wouldn't turn on. So I charged it for several hours, but that didn't work. It's completely nothing. Has this ever happened to any of you? Is there a cure? I now have to use my computer to go online (or my stupid Iphone which I don't like to use cuz the screen is so small). If anyone knows how I can fix or get this fixed, please advise.
I had a brand new laptop do the exact same thing. Needed to be rebuilt. Something got fried in it. Hope it wasn't fatal for your computer but it sounds like you have some time with the Geek Squad ahead of you no matter what.
Actually, it started working again after 4 days not working. I kept charging it and occasionally attempting to turn it on, and finally yesterday it started working again! Weird.
You said it. Weird! Glad you're back on line!
