help with unsecured (but safe) website

[stephen_2024386]

Hello, I'm a newcomer to Smarty. My new SIM is fully activated and internetting away quite happily.

However, A website I have used a couple of times in the past with no problem appears to be being blocked by Smarty as "unsecured"...The website in question is "www.skyscanners.co.uk".

How can I access this website now please?

Hello @stephen_2024386 . what makes you think that Smarty are blocking it?

After a little research, if you are looking for the Skyscanner search engine (company based in Edinburgh) for flights, try skyscanner.net or .com

I have just tried it over mobile data and it works fine.

Thanks. Maybe I should have googled it first. I thought it was .co.uk or .com.

You are correct...it is .net.

However. An incorrect address usually comes up with  something - even if it's not what you want.  On this occasion, my wrong address just showed a blank screen, leading me to think it had been blocked.

@stephen_2024386 Actually, now that I have opened the correct address in my browser, it is automatically defaulting to .net, no matter what I put in.

I wonder if it will forget that when I do one of my regular machine cleans with software?
