Opera still thinks it's not secure on my machine but this is nothing new. I was ignoring that with the old version for a very long time. I don't think it's a forums problem, I believe it's a browser problem, erring too far on the side of caution.

Got a warning earlier today about insecure site and wanted me to skip the page when I tried opening a forum thread. Could have been an attachment in one of the posts?

Add "HTTPS Everywhere" as an extension for Firefox. It can help force a "secure" connection if certain sites don't use https by default.

In the past, I did notice the connection for the wiki log-in wasn't secure and thus vulnerable to packet sniffing.
I just checked now and both the forum and wiki log-in are secure.

He does have a valid point. I had this happen to me twice today.
