So I presume that a hacker, I'd guess a religious nutcase, found a way to make our site unsafe, The first message I got effectively told me that my computer would be compromised if I got into this site and so it would not let me proceed. Well someone is caring for this site and removed the hacker. Thank you. But how did the hacker do it as this was the 2nd time.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Cyber security can be a complex and dynamic field, and hackers are constantly evolving their tactics. It might be worth reaching out to the site admin or tech support to see if they can shed some light on the specific vulnerabilities that were exploited.
On a positive note, it's great that the site's security measures are effective and that someone is actively monitoring and safeguarding it. Vigilance is key in the online world!
By the way, I've heard of instances where ethical hackers are hired to identify and patch up vulnerabilities in websites. It's like having a digital security expert on your side to proactively defend against potential threats. Maybe the site owner could should hire a hacker to perform a thorough assessment and ensure the site is robust moving forward.

Then to be more effective he needs some of Thor's thunderbolts.
There is no hacker involved here. It is just your browser reacting to an expired security certificate. When this happens I use my Edge browser and make an exception and chose to visit this site anyway.

I looked up Edge browser. It seems to be a Microsoft application. I'll have to find out if it will work with Linux. I;ve been on linux since despairing of Microsoft in 2004.
@rogerbenham If it is not compatible, try Brave browser, I use it and I think it is Linux compatible

@LenHazell53 That's what I'm using. I got fed up with Firefox loading my operating system.
Wild, noticed i can't get into the site at times, it 'times' me out. Never knew it was a hacker
