Default Security check issue

As of yesterday I am receiving, "www.corvetteforum.com needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding". I have no problem on my PC but on my new Samsung S8 tablet, I cannot get on the site. It just keeps looping the same message over and over. I shut off my VPN, restarted the tablet a few times, cleaned cache and cookies and none helped.
I do not have this problem using any other websites.
Please help.

Is it safe to continue to browse CF?

Are we at the same risk of hack as the forum, since the forum has our email, etc?

I fixed my issue by switching to "mobile site" in the browser settings.

I'm having the same problem. Something stinks here. This needs to be addressed.

I had a simlar issue and could not lock on this past Friday. I also saw a couple of Threads in OT recently about some login issues. I haven’t even tried getting back on Sunday and earlier today, but finally got on.
Is there some way to contact someone here for help when I can’t get on the Forum in case another problem occurs?
