when I open my home page I get a lock with a red line saying it is not secure. How do I correct this?
When I went on my hope page this morning I get a lock with a red line. The message when I click on the lock says the site is not secure. It seems that my other sites are secure since they have a green lock with no lines. How do I correct this? I contacted my internet provider and was on the phone for quite a while trying to correct this to no avail. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. Diane Gaber

There is likely 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 present and not blocked.
- a padlock with an exclamation mark attached means that mixed passive content (e.g. images) is present, but not blocked.

Note that Firefox 51+ also shows a padlock with a strike through if you visit a website via an open http connection.
