Joe's Window Manager site problem - SOLVED
Joe's Window Manager site problem - SOLVED
EDIT 6th May 2016
Here, with thanks to Joe for his fix. is a link to what is currently the last post in this thread:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 577#902577
---------------------------------------------------
JWM (Joe's Window Manager) is widely used in Puppy Linux.
http://joewing.net/ , Joe's official site, was easily accessed (by me) about a week ago.
Now, and for some days past, using the Pale Moon browser I get the message in the screen shot.
I have also tried using different browsers from different Pups; all failed - so I would appreciate any Forum member's report and especially any advice.

It's an unknown SSL cert that your browser tries preventing you from since the connection is secured -> https://joewing.net/
what you'll need to do is click I understand the risks, then you'll read:
If you understand what's going on, you can tell Pale Moon to start trusting this site's identification. Even if you trust the site, this error could mean that someone is tampering with your connection.
Don't add an exception unless you know there's a good reason why this site doesn't use trusted identification.
click on [Add exception]
a popup is gonna ask you if you want to add an exception again
(latest Google Chrome 50 btw doesn't block that cert)
everything is fine with that site -- this SSL certificate is made by the owner himself, but not insecure at all
(had to edit this last sentence -- well, i'm not a native speaker ;] )

Re: JWM site is down?
The site works ok, you only need to accept the certificate, that's all.

"joewing.net uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)"

Thank for replying. Using the latest versions of SeaMonkey (v 2.40) and Pale Moon (v 26.2.1 (x64)) I have, almost certainly, tried both (with no success) every day for about the last week or so.
It seems peculiar that the "ancient" Opera v 12 (but perhaps not v 12.16) fails for ebisu, but one of perdido's amazing tests which worked used Opera 12.16 / Debian 6.0 (squeeze).
