Problems arising from change of forum to HTTPS
hedgie:
I tend to be paranoid, but I haven't seen anything nasty coming here, either on Win 7 or Linux. The comic page, OTOH, has had adverts that were trying to do something bad. Your anti-virus is probably just having false-positives. The fora, are safe.

I'm inclined to not trust BitDefender there, there's incidents of them having rather nasty false positives in the past.

No good security system will fail to have false positives. I would normally expect those to be resolved, though.
Eternal_Newbie:
Hmm when I view the forums in Seamonkey 2.30 with SSL3 disabled (Win7 SP3) (All TLS versions enabled) I usually but not always get an error popup saying "You have requested a page that is only partially encrypted and does not prevent eavesdropping", or words to that effect.
Edit : also Seamonkey 2.31
bhtooefr:
That will be because remote avatars are allowed, and HTTPS avatars are not supported. So, if you're on a page with such a remote avatar, you'll get such a notice (due to mixed HTTP and HTTPS content).
