[Elecraft] Elecraft.com - NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID

[Barry N1EU]

Yes, it is not an issue of an expired certificate.  There IS no Elecraft
certificate, and when you try to force https, Elecraft's ISP host cruzio.com
provides a self-signed certificate on Elecraft's behalf and that is
generally interpreted as suspicious activity.  The "issued to" domain is
the ISP and should be elecraft.com and the "issued by" agency is the ISP
and needs to be a trusted issuing agency.

*This server could not prove that it is elecraft.com <http://elecraft.com>;
its security certificate is from host6.cruzio.com
<http://host6.cruzio.com>. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an
attacker intercepting your connection.*
