hyperlinks not working
-
My hyperlinks do not work properly anymore. When I click on them they go to a security page that says it is unsafe to continue. Someone might be attacking the my blog or wordpress site. Can’t figure out how to resolve the issue.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Copy and paste the exact error message here please along with the links that produce it.

Have you hotlinked to any images on external sites that you did not have permission to hotlink to? If so then delete it (them).
Here’s the result of the first report I ran on your site. No Malware Detected by External Scan http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/http://markvotava.com/
Here’s the result of the second check I ran. http://google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=http://markvotava.com/

Here is the link it goes to. It is going to the right page but the https:// is crossed out with a red slash across it. But in the past sometimes it goes to a warning page or won’t connect altogether. The original links are http://links.

You have an https:// issue.
Technical Details
markvotava.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.wordpress.com, wordpress.com (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)See here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/encription-for-wordpress-blog-posts?replies=22

How do I address or change the security certificate? Forum above in the link was confusing. What should I do? Any suggestions?

Hi there!
When you connect to your Dashboard or blog over an HTTPS connection, we use an SSL certificate to encrypt your connection. SSL certificates need to be signed to a specific domain, and we can’t provide certificates for every mapped domain, so our certificate is signed for WordPress.com.
When you go to your own domain with https:// but your security software sees a certificate signed to http://wordpress.com/ it’s alerting you that WordPress.com may be intercepting your connection, which of course is perfectly fine.
Most security systems like this should have a way to add a permanent exception so you will never see the warning again in this instance.
To prevent your readers from running into this in their browsers, just make sure that whenever you provide a link to your blog or post it anywhere, that you post it as http://markvotava.com and not https://markvotava.com
You can read more about this here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/
That page will also give you instructions on how to disable that pop-up on your browser.
Let me know if you have further questions!
