ProZ.com FAQ 54 Dec 3, 2017

54 - Is SSL supported for ProZ.com hosted accounts?

SSL is not supported for ProZ.com hosted accounts. SSL generally requires the use of a dedicated IP address. ProZ.com hosting accounts have shared IP addresses, and dedicated IP addresses are not available.

Thanks, Alexander. For some reason I didn't receive notification of your post.
Anyway, I don't know what any of that means, but I have never had such a notification before, and I've had this account for years.
Maybe Firefox is just now configured to call attention to it.

Staff, could you please comment?

Recent changes to web browsers are giving more warnings about SSL Dec 5, 2017

Hi Susan,


Anyway, I don't know what any of that means, but I have never had such a notification before, and I've had this account for years. Maybe Firefox is just now configured to call attention to it.


You are right. Recent updates to web browsers like Firefox and Chrome are causing them to report more warnings about unencrypted connections. I think that's what has changed in this case.

Best regards,

Jason
