Bitdefender tells me that the site is not secure:

The webpage you are trying to access contains dangerous URLs and will be excluded from the scan during this session.

Why does not the site have an https address as currently recommended?

Best guess: You have book-marked gimp chat with
http://gimpchat.com

It does try: https://gimpchat.com

Edit: While linux is not as susceptible to virus as Windows, always good to know what is happening.

http: versus https: So whatever you do do not look at this image ;)

With the URL https you told me, Bitdefender does not manifest anymore ...but the display is like that (and yet uBlock is disabled for GC)

Got the same garbage from defender last week. Seems to have cleared itself up though. No more errors anyways. Although i still always get one from defender when i try and install new versions of GIMP. I just click more info and install anyways.

False Positive. :bigthup :hehe

if I open with the https address, with Firefox or Internet Explorer, the page is not displayed correctly and I can not access the icons. it looks like a java script problem?
With url https:

With url http:

I do not see how to change that if it's really Bitdefender that is the cause ... because I go to sites still in http and I do not have this problem......

Do you know how to use Command Prompt,
to flush/clear your DNS (Domain Name System) of your computer,
to see if this corrects the issue?

If not.
Open Command Prompt As Administrator.
Copy and past this command:
ipconfig /flushdns

Once this has completed successfully.
Copy and past this command:
ipconfig /renew

Then visit Gimp Chat,
to see if doing this made any difference.

Also,
if your security software has a White List.
Be sure to add: http://gimpchat.com
To this list.

I see the same and it's because my browser (Firefox) is blocking unsecured content while browsing an otherwise secure website.

The images are being served from http://gimpchat.com NOT https://gimpchat.com and that's undermining the https security, so Firefox blocks it by default.

I would have to tell Firefox to allow the insecure content.
