why can't I get a secure connection at http://www.yahoo.com ?
when I first open up my browser, the connection is secure (green padlock). as soon as the damn adsds start showing up non the page, the connection becomes unsecured (gray padlock, orange triangle). why?????? I never had this problem before. if I can't fix it, can you? thanks for your time
From /questions/1160729:
I'm sorry, the connection I meant was https://www.yahoo.com on my previously asked question, I forgot to add the "s" in the URL

Is this about the main Yahoo page or possibly about the Yahoo mail page?
This can be caused by mixed content on that web page.
You can see a special padlock at the left end of the location/address bar.
- a padlock with a strike through means that mixed active content is blocked.
- a padlock with an exclamation mark attached means that mixed passive content (e.g. images) is present, but not blocked.
The shield icon, previously used for mixed active content, is now used for Tracking Protection.

Hi, it might be interesting to try an ad-blocker since they seem to be causing the problem - How do I tell if my connection to a website is secure?
