Robert,

Yes, it does, but I'm not sure why it was trying to load as HTTPS.

I have no add-on, like HTTPS Everywhere, installed...

This is a starting point, now I can continue.

Thank you all, as always. :D
Something is strange here... if you installed ublock to that profile and 'then' ran that profile in Firefox safe-mode... it (ublock) would have been disabled and have no affect on anything... supposedly.

SeaMonkey gives me a "dropdown", "Insecure information on this page was blocked." with an options to Unblock (or to change "Mixed Content" preferences).

FF gives me some obscure icon on the URL bar, then when clicked says, "Connection is Not Secure" & then an option to "Disable protection for now".


When this "insecurity block" are removed/disabled, the page renders as expected.

Rube: Same thing for me, same wording.

Dfloukes: Sorry, I didn't mean UBlock, I meant VooDoo Shield and Sandboxie.

That is the standard message that you can see when insecure mixed active content is blocked and
security.mixed_content.block_active_content is true
