How can I access a site that uses HTTP?

more options

When I try to access a site (http://www.dwyrin.tv/dwyrin-who/) that still uses HTTP (rather than HTTPS), Firefox just says it is insecure and I cannot find an option among the site settings than appear when l click the struck out padlock in the address bar. How can I continue to access such a site?

P.S. I should have said that Firefox shows a blank page although Duck Duck Go shows text as found on that page. P.P.S. I am astonished that I can edit this post but not my original question!

When I view the page source (Ctrl+u or right-click > View Page Source) it seems to terminate very prematurely. Maybe there is a problem on the server?

@jscher2000 Good point; I just checked that Google search also shows text on pages that come up blank for me, so I suspect it is a problem that the server reacts strangely to my browser! Perhaps I should do some experiments using the user agent switching extension.

It could be a user agent issue, but it also could be that the search engines have older cached copies and haven't gotten around to updating them.
