Why does Chrome not connect to this forum?

[StephenSky]

Using Chrome as a browser using a link to the Sky community from my email notification, I get the following 'privacy' message and it will not connect. If I use FireFox, I get straight through. Why is Chrome blocking me?

@StephenSky  Not having any issues with chrome on this forum.  try deleting your browser cache and try again as you shouldn't get that error message,

[StephenSky]

Clearing cache made absolutely no difference....

Anyone else just wish that computers just worked without having to be an engineer???

Fine here too using Chrome 107.0.5304.107 with Windows 10.

[GD1]

@StephenSky  Also running Chrome Version 107.0.5304.107 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Windows 11

Can you check you have the latest version of chrome?

[StephenSky]

Version 107.0.5304.107 (Official Build) (64-bit)

it worked fine yesterday...

Just tried that link - Chrome, blocked. FireFox, no issues...

Is the date and time correct on your PC ?

What happens if you temporally disable your anti-virus can you then access it ?

[GD1]

@StephenSky  Do you still get the erro using incognito mode in chrome

[StephenSky]

Ah-ha... time is correct to the second, but, disabling my AVG anti virus (up to date), Chrome bursts back into life!

[StephenSky]

Sorry, missed a post! Yes, I still get the same error in incognito mode...

[StephenSky]

Dug in to AVG and there is a feature of 'WebShieild', when I turn it off, Chrome works fine connecting to the forum, though it's not a very satifactory solution. (Especially when it doen't effect FireFox) At least I now know the cause of 'the fault'...

EDIT

Have now worked out how to add this forum as an 'exception' to my AVG anti virus, all well now. Thanks guys for all your help...

Glad you have it working @StephenSky .

It suddenly started doing this to me a few weeks ago on my phone. So I'm currently accessing it via incognito mode.
