    Hi ...

    Every time i start Game Manager i get a Security Warning ...

    GM-Capture.JPG

    Does every time .... ? it doesn't seem to matter if i click yes or no ...

    Has anyone else got this issue ? ... i tried searching the forum but cant find any other referance to it.

    Also why does GM ignore the default app settings ?, my default browser is Chrome .. but it seems to insist on using Internet Explorer .... !!!! .. which i never use due to security concerns ?

    Any Advice on either of these issues ?

    Cheers
    Jay

    It is just verifying that all the splash page info is not delivered via https, you can just say no and close the splash page.

    I don't know for sure but my guess is that the code used triggers explorer as a program rather than triggers a browser on a link click.

    I've had this for about 12months now ever since I swapped computers, so I suspect it is some sort of windows setting. I've just never been bothered to work out what it is.

    There is no http:// splash page in 2.0.
    So this problem will vanish on 2.0 release.

    Right now there is no way to stop or remove the warning ??? ... but when V2.0 is released the issue will go away ?

    Cheers

    That's what he wrote:
    Also, double clicking on the tray icon will close the splash screen
