TF Are you trying to save the internet by disallowing this in TB!?

Why bother with a secure connection if it can be compromised? If I set
a user's antivirus to advise when there is an update instead of doing
it automatically they almost invariably will opt out of doing it. Even
worse, when it is time for renewal they will click out of renewing for
45 days in a row instead of renewing. Then I get the phone calls after
the expiration asking for help because the opportunity to click a
renewal link has disappeared. Even my school teacher daughter did
this!

I am fascinated that you want to complain because TB has the courage
to do the right thing instead of being politically correct like
all (or most) of the others.

RG It isn't a case of courage but rather usability and

It is hardly an usability issue. On one hand you say you want to be
secure and on the other you want to override the security. Make your
choice and pay your dues or go to some other place that promotes
inappropriate compromise.

RG allowing people
RG to use the program as they see fit.

After 20 years I have yet to see a program that morphs itself to the
whims of the user. Rather the user has a responsibility to learn the
rules and play by them or go to a different ball game.
