Has anyone used this site in the last few days. Trying to look and am getting security messages telling me that their security certificate has expired .
I can proceed to the website but am being told that it is unsafe and I am open to attack :-\

There was a notice to say the site would no longer be maintained due to the owner's ill health. Options were being investigated to see if it could be taken over. Perhaps that came to nothing.
You can still access it via the wayback machine

It's a very useful website.
Just adding that some of the research I was involved is not available.

Thank you :) What a shame, I have used the site for many years but not recently.
Thanks for the link I will take a look..

You can still access the site, the security cert has expired as it wasn't renewed by the ill owner. As you are not purchasing or downloading anything it does not pose a problem. I have heard through SFHG that there might be a volunteer taking it over soon.

That is good news :), there are some really interesting bits and pieces on the site be a shame to lose it. I’m a bit of a worry wort when it comes to ‘warning’ messages, I can now browse with confidence :)
