MetaTalk

Just a heads up about a couple little bumps in the last day: we had a small misconfiguration with MetaFilter's SSL certificate configuration that might have lead to browser warnings in some situations (but no actual danger), and the site's RSS feeds were stalled out for a bit as of yesterday. Both are mostly resolved now, some details inside! [more inside]

All of a sudden I'm getting a security warning every time I switch pages within Metafilter (i.e. switching from MeFi to AskMe to MeTa, etc.) saying "The security certificate does not match the site name" and asking me "Do you want to proceed?"... So far I've just been clicking out of it without answering (it wants me to answer "yes" or "no") but it's kind of freaking me out. I've been logged in all day, and it just started within the last 5 minutes. Is this happening to anybody else? I'm on IE7 with XP, if that helps.
