Security Level: Safer

Visiting: http://www.lacusveris.com/Wxo?state=WI&state_x_county=WIC117&wfo=MKX&tz=C&station=KSBM&state_x_zone=WIZ052&county_name=Sheboygan&lat=43.7212&lon=-87.9454&lang=en_US&unit=Customary&zipcode=53081

This is a new, old site. It is new code on a new server, serving an old domain name.

Site comes up OK in firefox, but not in tbb. Tor returns a " Secure Site Not Available" page. Firefox shows an https lock, so that’s probably good.

Expected Result: Tor should see http but try for https first and succeed.

Idle Speculation: I wonder if it’s finding http://lacusveris.com in the bookmarks and this causes it to skip trying https.

Workaround: Change the protocol to https. Then tbb apparently fetches the site.
