Graham,
We have escalated your concern to our developer's team and they have taken this as a feedback and working on it.
To know the original certificate details then you can use online certificate checker or similar tools to do that.
It's now 2025, nearly seven years after you said the devloper team is working on it, and this has still not been fixed. Are the team really working on it, or is this something you just say when you want to calm people down without actually doing anything? I keep Webshield disabled because of this "feature".
Graham,
We would like to understand more about this situation. Please share screenshot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201361 of that message and provide us your MAC OS version http://https//support.apple.com/en-us/HT201260 .
I can understand that AVG will want to check the SSL cert being used to ensure that it is authentic, but I don't see why it needs to obscure the detail. This means that when I want to check a site's certificate I have to first turn off the Web Shield feature.
Thank you for waiting, Graham.
This is the correct behavior because of the https scanning in the webshield.
We need to use our (AVG) certificate to be able to scan such traffic.

Thanks. I can appreciate that the Web Shield needs to take action when checking https sites, but I don't see why it can't be done in such a a way that I can still see the details of the sites' own SSL certificate?
