Fed up with security alarm on puter (1 Viewer)

@Jim

Sorry Jim I know you're busy and that your mind is with Katie, but my computer gets all frozen each time I go on fun.
This keeps coming up and even if I click YES (I want to carry on this site) all the time, it keeps deciding this site is not safe.
Then everything freezes, I can't type, every letter takes ages to appear .... What can I do???

Any other funster's reply to help is welcome as long as you bear in mind, I am rubbish at computering, speak with simple words PLEASE ! Thank you!

Amicalement

Bet Carl @Gromett knows what the problem and fix is.

I got the same over the week-end as well

My French is really poor but it looks like a certificate related issue. You shouldn't be getting that message as fun is not currently encrypted.

Make sure that you don't have https:// instead of http://

All I can suggest is that you try an alternate browser such as Firefox or Chrome.

I am not a Windows person so don't have access to Microsoft Edge so can't advise further sorry

The speed issues are probably not related, unless you have some kind of malware that is causing both.

Faults like this can sometimes be fixed by going in to settings and clearing cookies and clearing browsing history as well. It is a pain as you will probably have to renter passwords, but it might sort it.

Looks and sounds like malware to me. The URL is http not https so why is it even giving a certificate error?

I would be running something like MalWarebytes "tout suite" - see what I did there

First download Crap Cleaner and run it:

Then download the Malwarebytes free here and run it:

​

Then for good measure 'tidy up' your hard drive using this:
