I can't screen shot the original /first message but it said something about it being blocked because it was a forum. the one shown above was when i tried to use http and not https which may be due to my network settings.
That looks like a DNS issue, one thing you can try from Firefox is to use DNS over HTTPS (under Privacy and Security). The result you are seeing is very smilar to that reported by several users on BT when a site was put onto a blacklist by the list maintainer in use by them. It got resolved a couple of dys later.

If I get that and it's a website I have used regularly (i.e. I trust it) I go to "Advanced" and say that I accept the risk.

Next time this happens, select view certificate and screengrab it. We can work out what’s happening from that.

My guess is that your https connection is being man-in-the-middle’d by something.
