Strange PopUp

[Scovie]

This is new, and it is happening with MiPad and our Mac.

Clicking on a thread we get a popup that says this..

Safari cannot verify the identity of
"static.ak.facebook.com"
Would you like to continue anyway?
Cancel
Details
Continue

I click "Cancel" and everything is fine.
I clicked "Details for curiosity and it says this...

a248.e.akamai.net
GTE Cyber Trust Global Root
Not Trusted
Expires Aug 27, 2013
More Details

I clicked "More Details" and a page comes up with Algorithms, signatures, company name, etc.
a lot of numbers, letters and dots.

It happens when I click on any thread to open, except "View New Content".
I have no FB, so I have no idea what this is all about.
And I'm not drunk.

Any thoughts?

I watch streaming surf contests and Akamai is one of the video players and companies they sometimes use.Could be a Flash issue.Mac

Back away from the iPoop.

It's happening everywhere: http://forum.rpg.net...ssage-in-Safari

The world is ending!

Or... Facebook and Apple are spying on you

 

[Scovie]

And now they are spying on YOU!

Thanks for the link, and your help.

Our Paper comes out on Wednesdays, I'm sure it will be the headline next Wednesday.

Here's an apple topic you can follow: https://discussions....120370?tstart=0
I'm sure it will clear up after they update whatever security they need to update etc.

 

[Scovie]

Thanks so much boss, really cool of you to find that for me.

At least now I know it's not just me.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Nope. Seems it's all Apple users. Take that iPoop, put it in a brown bag and light it on fire on JayT's porch for Halloween.

 

[Scovie]

It has stopped doing it now. That was easy.

Didn't happen on my mac. FYI. But then, I'm on an MBP, not an iPad.

 

[Scovie]

It was happening on our iMac too.

I'm a glutton for the EASY button.

Not the same issue, and this was resolved by the third party. Closed.
