I have also tried with FF and checked what it says about the site security. There is something on that page that is not encrypted, maybe an image or something. What ever it is not fully secure even though it is https.

I think you might be correct looking at Steel's post over at the C/A forums.

Yes it sounds about right. However it's still not good practice using non encrypted content on a secure page. You don't need many pixels in an image to run a script. I don't think you have much of a chance to get the situation changed without making a song and dance.

I think you're right to be suspicious. It suggests that the web page in question hasn't been properly set up, so although it's an https address it may still not be secure.

There is a long thread on the O2 forum concerning their web site errors following the introduction of the new BB packages. There were also errors on the O2 forum site which were corrected and there is still a time error on that site which shows posts being made +/-1  hour of the true time.

Basically, it appears that the developers are outsourced and probably located in India. Numerous errors were discussed and it took quite a while to correct those errors that had been identified.

This security error has obviously been missed.

@UncleUB >> I would suggest a PM to Paul@O2 or Abhishek@O2 will get the correct response.

I found this thread while having a look round the O2 forums,as you can see this was brought to light way back in Feb2009.
