Are you seeing more security warnings from Chrome and Firefox? I started using the new FireFox Browser (Quantum) and sites that aren't https are not connecting.

I am not. I am also not surprised. We knew this was coming. Meanwhile, IDX providers are still limping along trying to figure out how to create SSL with IDX.

I have safari, but I use Chrome on occasion. I haven't seen an increase, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was. Google has indicated that ssl is an important factor for it going forward even if it isn't considered a "ranking factor" yet.

Jeff Pearl I'm using Firefox Quantum 57.0 and haven't had a problem of being locked out of non-secure sites. One forum I attend is not secure but does have a padlock with a diagnal line through it. I also do see the warning message when logging on.
