OK, since you persist, I’ll take 10 minutes out of my busy day to diagnose your problem…

On this page:
http://vetspoker.tripod.com/vetspokersite/id2.html

You have an image loading, from here:
https://secure.pokerchamps.com/anims/wpt_pclongbanner_468x60_red.gif

Note the ‘s’ in https. That means you’re loading this image over a secure connection from the pokerchamps site via SSL. That means that your visitor’s browser must negotiate a secure encrypted connection with the Poker Champs site so this picture can be downloaded. Part of that process is that your visitors browser will request the secure certificate from that site, in order to verify that secure.pokerchamps.com is really the server that it claims to be.

Now, I don’t know why your browser complained about the PokerChamps certificate, because it appears just fine at the moment. The certificate from their site has valid dates from July 14, 2004 to July 15, 2006, so it was not recently renewed. Perhaps they were doing maintenance on their server when you requested the page, or perhaps your browser just got confused.

Regardless, none of this would ever have happened if you had just changed the ‘https’ in your image src tag to ‘http’. Your visitors don’t need a secure connection to download a banner from PokerChamps.

So, go edit your page to correct your mistake, and quit with the attitude already.
