looks like i'm on http on all 3 laptops ( no http visible in address bar, a little lock icon with a red bar across it ) . Both my sister's and my mom's have the link stored in browser's history for months ( those two i don't need to log in again )

Mine is another story , i manually typed the address from Google's home page , then using this link to get back here . should i write https in the address bar to solve it ? i'll try

anyway, its not a big deal, it helps the brain remember the password..
