Noticed this today. Not sure why it’s there, but it (seems to be) specific to this page ..
https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/forum.asp?h=0&...

I’ve snipped it to only show gruffalo’s post because it’s from there onwards.

Thank you for flagging. It's showing as secure for me, is anyone else seeing this as insecure?

80

If it helps, the page numbers are in the screen grab; and Ben's link goes directly to the page (not sure why my one doesn't any more).

Only if you have your page length set to 80, which Ben may not have ...

If I follow the Ben's link then I see page 7 (of 1496) with my weedy 20 posts per page. smile

Regardless, I suspect the reason you are seeing this is that there is a link on the page to an external, insecure site (photo hosting or similar).

There's your answer: it's the military-today.com site that is insecure, not PH.
