Site/board security settings?

When I try to reach this forum and site on my mobile or desktop I continually get security errors. I believe the security certificate for the site/board or the server/host needs updated. Not sure who can address this but I know this is a reason that quite a few folks can't get to this page. Thanks.

Justinmc89 - are you using a link from a Microsoft Mail account by chance? Microsoft does a "safe link" check that can cause the sites not to open or respond. I was having an issue going to specific sites from the e-mail notices I get for updates (Outlook/Live/Hotmail account), it has happened a few times. If you are going from a link, try typing in 311s.org and see if you can get in that way. If you are not using a link, then I have no idea what could be causing the problem.

Thanks. I tweaked some settings on my end. Oddly it was going directly from the link off google when typing in "311s discussion forum".... Will see if the problem reappears.
