Oh I feel like shit, why did I have to reveal that...

I just want to support you, please understand that. This could have come back to bite you much harder. Oh well. You are not blameless, it's your server. Keep it as secure as you want, I'll just remember no SSL here ;)

db90h:
If I could delete this topic, I would.. so am requesting you do .. for your privacy while you fix it.

mouser:
Deep breaths ! :)
There's nothing to get freaked out about -- most people don't use SSL for donationcoder or any other forum login, and don't need to.
I'll look into the SSL login issue you've mentioned, but there's no need to panic.
And again the main important thing that everyone should remember, for general security, is to use different passwords on different websites -- and if you're having trouble remembering them, use a password manager.

ps.
smf forum login uses javascript to hash passwords before its submitted to the login page, even over non-ssl.

Deozaan:
I have no idea what you're talking about. I see the connection is encrypted when I visit this page:

https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php

Make sure you're visiting the https site, and not just http.

Though, because I'm not using https myself, it is stripping the S from the https when I paste the link... Which I think means it will be there for anyone else who is using https.

db90h:
@Deozaan: That is not the default address, unless maybe you use that HTTPEverywhere extension.

It defaults to HTTP.

So sorry to have brought this up. It's legit though.
