I changed the site tonight to always be https instead of http
Meaning https://www.thesamba.com instead of http://www.thesamba.com
This is more secure and becoming a requirement in modern browsers for any page containing a login page.
You already could use https if you typed it in or accessed the site that way but:
This means if you were using http and you had your password saved in your web browser to login, you will have to login again under the https version of the site and re-save the password in your web browser.
If you don't know your password, you can view it in your web browser saved password settings.
Or:
Click Forgot Password link on the site if you are totally lost and need a new temporary password sent to you.
Note: Some pages on the site may not say "Secure" on them right now as some images are not being served from a secure source. I will be trying to update that soon.
Google Chrome web browser examples:
Secure:
Some images are not secure so you get an info icon:
The main Home Page, the main Classifieds page, the main Forums page, and the Login link at the top of any page on the site are all 100% secure with the example tag seen above.
If you prefer to only login on a fully secure page, please use one of those options.
