Can anyone recommend a broadband service provider that provides a good homesafe service? We are currently with Talktalk and are unhappy with the service they provide. They cannot block any https websites, which is a bit crap. Anyone know of a service provider that can block https websites?

Surely if you block secure websites, Amazon, ebay, youtube and hundreads of other websites will fail to work.

Why would you want to do that?

How will you pay for stuff, or do your banking?

Why do you want to block https websites? It just means the connection is secure and encrypted - ie more security for you?

Like the others said, if you're blocking https websites, you're actually blocking secure ones. Thats what the s stands for. It's not the best idea, even Twitter uses https.

Even Mumsnet uses it on their sign in pages. You wouldn't have been able to post this message if they were blocked.
