Yesterday when i logged onto allsparks.com got a full screen warning from Firefox, took me by surprise.

Message reads
Warning security risk ahead

The website is either misconfigured or your computer clock is set to wrong time. My time on my laptop is correct.
It's likely the website's certificate is expired, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely. If you visit site, attackers could try to steal info like your passwords and emails. (This has happen to me in the past and received some not very nice scam emails.)
Firefox say you can notify the website's administrator about the problem, i sent a PM
I logged onto day with no problems at the moment.

Did anyone else receive this warning message yesterday?

I usually log in on my android phone. No issues today but last week, Monday I think, got re-routed to some domain name instead.

That's strange being re-routed to another domain.

I do have problems logging onto this website, took several attempts to log on.

There were issues a couple of years ago but all seems ok for now.
