John,
Below is what I get when using the link:

This Connection is Untrusted
You have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.av8n.com, but we can't
confirm that your connection is secure.
Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted
identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However,
this site's identity can't be verified.
What Should I Do?
If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean
that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.

With secure socket links to www.av8n.com all you have to do is remove the "s" from "https".
Better idea: Accept the av8n.com server certificate!
Tell your browser to remember it, so future connections
will be secure.
The overhead for doing this is really, really small.
You only have to do it once (for each browser that
you use).
Worst case is to accept the certificate for this session
only ... which is still more secure than using unadorned
http.
I'm encouraging people to use encryption unless there is
a super-good reason not to. Unless you've been living in
a cave for the last 16 months, you can probably guess why.
I can go into vastly more detail if anybody is interested.
