Help! can't sign in to edit remote site

L

Lisak

I haven't edited my website in quite a while but fortunately had written step
by step instructions in which to follow. Unfortunately, I haven't been able
to even sign in. I typed in the ID and the password from my notes, case
specific, and the sign in box just comes back with the warning below:

Warning: This server is requesting that your username and password be sent
in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure connection).

I am assuming that I need to do something to the "authentication" yet have
no idea what that is. Please send any ideas, and as I am such a novice,
please be idiot-proof and speak in laymans terms - I would appreciate it
greatly!
