"Privacy Error" at Basstringsonline?

When I go to bassstringsonline I get a message on Chrome that reads: "Your connection is not private. Attackers might be trying to steal your information..."

This happens on my home computer and on my phone. It's the only website that does this. Anyone else get this message when browsing through the site?
 
Is there a specific page you are going to?
The home page isn't https: . If you login the login happens on a secure page but if you them click "home" you're back on an unsecured page.

While only the login and payment pages really need to be secured most all commerce sites have all the pages secured these days just so the paranoid don't freak out ;) .
 
I have had this happen as well in the past and I noticed that I had bookmarked it, and was always entering thru the URL I had bookmarked, which is
Invalid Link Removed for some reason.

If I just type in www.bassstringsonline.com it works fine, and if I enter thru a search engine it works fine as well.

Not sure if the OP is having the exact same issue or not but it wont hurt to check.

I recall this as well... This can occur when using an old bookmark or from one of the first first first links that are scattered around.
 
The only thing I can think of is the page someone is on that is giving the error may have an image link that is NOT https.

So if someone can help me out and give me some detailed info as to what exactly is on the page (home page products rotate) it would help me find if there is a link to an image on http rather than https.
 
Understand.

The setting right now is setup to handle both and the users browser is supposed to switch to the secure on its own.

According to that Google article at least...

I have a message into the support team for my hosting company. See what they have to say. As far as I can tell the settings are correct.

Working on finding the solution though.
