I've been getting warnings on me phone but still able to get on the site. The pc at home won't even open the site up.
Any suggestions?

The only way I can access is to add this site as an exception - I use Avast Free. Not ideal, but only way I can log on now.

My desktop uses Win 7 and Avast and has the same problem. Lap top is Win10 with built in defender, that has no problems

It needs sorting Gents.

I have the same problem using Windows 7 and avg antivirus but my note pad with avg installed lets me in to the club site. Very strange. Perhaps Mr Gates's crowd are averse to Rover?

Well the Rover doesn't need rebooting every day, doesn't need a software update every fortnight, doesn't need extra memory after 18 months (unlike me), and doesn't need replacing after three years !

Go figure !

I use AVG and have had the same problems as AVG won't let me log on unless I put the site on the EXCEPTIONS list.

The problem is not a virus that can upset your computer. All that is needed is for the ADMIN to update the site safety certificates.

( C'mon Admin, get out of the dark ages. Lol. )
