    That has happened before with this website, but you're only giving your name & address, so it should be ok to enter... :)

    I would worry myself if that warning came up on a secure site... :eek:

    I have mentioned that before, but told that as no sensitive info is given, there is nothing to worry about, being cautious as i am, decided not to proceed though.
    Thankyou Sir Alex for 26 years

    Just to clarify the security problem; I wouldn't worry too much about it, as it's a problem with their certificate authority, and not them themselves.

    Basically, it all boils down to the fact that the certificate is only valid if "www." is added in front of the link.

    So anyone worried about the certificate problem (or is a bit unsure how to get around it), you can enter the competition by clicking the link below instead, and you won't have any problems.

    In the last paragraph, it states 49'11" not 49"11', which is presumably a typographical error in the earlier paragraph:
    Bash robots and battle the alien menace as the macho half-ape, half-fish The Missing Link, the gelatinous, indestructible, and brainless B.O.B., and the 49’11” tall woman, Ginormica, with the help of the monstrous 350’ tall grub Insectosaurus.

    Since the security problems with this site, it's refused to recognise my username, password or e-mail address ! Just when there's some good prizes too! :mad:

    Re the earlier comments on the height, yes it's a typo in one of their paragraphs, but not the other as loubro says. 49' 11" is the correct way. One way round it might be to write the answer out in full like this - 49 feet 11 inches ? :confused: Just a thought.

    Good luck all - if it lets you enter!! :rolleyes: :D
    Big thanks to Martin Lewis for helping us start to sort out our finances!!!:A

    Best Comp win:X-Box 360!!

    And thank you to all posters! You're wonderful!
