Security Errors on Website
It’s been reported, and we’ve verified, that some are receiving security warnings when accessing this website. After speaking with our hosting service, we’ve determined the issue. The good news is that there is nothing wrong with the site’s security, and the errors are simply security software warnings doing their job. The bad news is that this won’t happen until after MosquitoCon in three weeks. So, for now, the website works, even if glitchy, and a fix in in the offing.
Vincent L. D’Alessio
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Vince D’Alessio, a long-time NJIPMS member, and long-serving club treasurer. Services are this coming Friday, March, 13th, in Brooklyn. All information can be found HERE.
