People,
I have been trying to build a usable PC out of old - but previously
unused hardware (motherboards, CPUs, RAM, 80GB Seagate disks, power
supplies) - but whatever combination I use I continually get core dumps
- I have reinstalled on numerous occasions and sometimes the PC works

I tend to use sha256sum to check file integrity and then as far into gpg
(see: https://www.gnupg.org/ ) as is practical in the situation.

What sort of security issues are indicated by redirection?
What would they be doing (or not doing) in the programming from their end
which would cause this?
Could problems with DNS or other parts of the IP stack be involved?

Be prepared for various things to fail, you cannot force HTTPS with

Thanks for responding jd1008 and Joe,
Jd1008 as you point out add-ons are unknowns. I find unknowns kinda scary
when it comes to security. I really do try to do things to limit the sites

process if at all possible.

Most of the time that I have ever had problems with passwords it turned out

I'm not sure which graphical you are talking about. The
graphics that display during the boot (the animated
