Hi all,

This is getting a little frustrating. Unable to get on forum with chrome, edge was suggested...now can not get on with edge....now using duckduckgo. wondering how long this will last. i would like to be able to get on here with my chrome, that which i use for everything else.

Please help, please advise me.

I used the address http://www.aussiedownunder.info/Ausrock/index.php/topic,20978.0/topicseen.html (rather than shttp) and I've had no troubles since.

thank you, i will try that for a while. next year i will probably be off line for good because my dell windows 10 will not be able to upgrade to windows 11....so i hear......so unless i can afford a new pc (doubtful) i will be off line. however before i go, i have had donations of lp's and as of now around 120 new lp's to post on my internet archives page.

i will let everyone here know after i start posting.

thank you ratso for your help..... :thankyou1: :thankyou1: :thankyou1:

No worries tonyangel.
Just a thought, but why not back up your computer and use Linux instead of Windows?

I think you have a browser issue where Edge and Chrome are trying to force a https connection when one doesn't exist for this site.

You may want to try using Firefox as your browser which can still be set to connect to http only sites.
[Settings > Privacy & Security > Scroll down to "HTTPS-Only Mode" then select "Don’t enable HTTPS-Only Mode"]

If you install Firefox I also suggest installing the Privacy Badger extension that stops trackers following you in your web browsing.
