A bit of misinformation in the thread.
The certificate is used when you click "Login" as it directs the site
visitor to https://www.contesting.com/user/login so whoever said there's no
HTTPS/SSL isn't correct. If you are logged in, log out and try to log in.
If you aren't logged in, whether you have an account or not click Login and
you'll see the alert. Changing browsers has no impact on this.
The certificate is not expired as it is valid until the end of the month.
The warning is because the certificate is associated with eham.net and not
contesting.com and it's a mismatch on the domain name. I'd guess
contesting.com is hosted on eham's host.
Anyway, I wouldn't worry about it though the contesting.com/eham folks
should correct it. The cert will expire in 11 days so when they get a new
cert, maybe they can also correct the common name so contesting.com is
included.
