Sorry for the outage this morning. We are working to make everything work as well as we can, but want to move to a different server. So the odd outage is likely to occur before we finally complete this move. The only way to do this work safely is to take the forum offline. Sometimes we have to do this without warning.

Sorry again. Normal service will be resumed, we will keep you in touch with progress.

Anyone else missing images off the desktop?
Clicking on the areas still launches the various functions. Weird!

We will look into this for you. We have split up a few things, so it's not impossible we have broken a couple of things.

No worries. Enforced IT changes are prone to disrupt these little details. :-)

I'm getting a "Certificate Error" on the Bet Angel site today.

Yet you still used it to tell us how unsafe it is. Calm down, the world's not ending.

I'm no expert in internet security but I think that's only a real concern if one, you're visiting a site you're not familiar with and two, you're about to make a purchase or send private information.

I didnt say it was unsafe. I am familiar with the BetAngel site so my assumption was that the SSL certificate had expired so my post was more of a message to the Bet Angel crew to investigate/resolve because anyone visiting the Bet Angel site for the first time would likely not stick around. SSL Certificates have to be renewed every year and some pretty large sites have been known to let them inadvertently expire.

Thanks for the sarky comment thought.

We haven't seen any reports of this today apart from this one. So not sure why you saw that?

It didnt say certificate expiry as such - just certificate error. I first noticed in the BA embedded browser then I tried Firefox, Edge and Chrome browsers - variations of the same message in all 3 browsers. Issue went away about 10 minutes after I posted about the issue so I assumed your team had done something. I'll do a full AV scan of my machine in case I have a local issue.

Note added : I've scanned my PC and no issues detected. Will have to put it down as a temporary glitch then I guess. I'll notify support directly if it recurs.
