Invalid Certificate


Recommended Posts

Whenever I go to sign in to my cPanel accounts, I am delayed by an "Invalid Certificate" message from the browser that warns me about the IP and not to go there.  

 

Of course the site is perfectly safe and I should have though that Maxthon would learn that I go there often, or at least give me an option to permanently override the message for that particular IP.

 

This warning message has been part of Maxthon for a long time now, and with each new version I have been hoping it would stop bothering me about domains I approve, but it remains...

 

Maxthon has been my main browser since MyIE2 years and nothing compares IMO, but this little thing gets to me.

 

Is there any way to get rid of this annoyance.  If so, I would be delighted.

Yes.  Firefox complains, but allows me to add an exception.

I like the Firefox way of handling this.

It looks like that URL / IP is blocked by many DNS servers, System administrators, ISP postmasters, and other Service providers.

Be that as it may, that is a shared server and directories at that IP is one I access routinely and do not need to be warned about.  

 

My share on this IP has nothing to do with the reasons for blacklisting, and many sites using shared hosting get blacklisted when only one site at that address deserves blocking.

 

Blacklisting IPs is a shotgun approach where a rifle would be much more useful.  Blacklists are inaccurate and should not be forced on users.  One warning per IP should be enough.

 

Firefox allows me to turn off the warnings for that IP, and IMO so should Maxthon.

 

There are a number of sites that I have found that I have to use Firefox to access properly, and would prefer Maxthon would allow me to go directly to this site after warning me once, rather than making me want to fire up FF.

Hmmm.  Seems this thread got hyjacked.

 

Someone posted a solution here for my problem that involved a number of actions like flushing cache, etc. and I did not have time to follow up. 

 

Today I came back to look into following those instructions and found that post seems to be gone and the topic morphed into something else.

 

Whare did the answer to my question go?

 

My last post on  the topic is quoted here.
