this has nothing to do with the URL, but with the certificate used for
encryption.
as an admin, i will plainly refuse to allow the webpage to transmit
passwords in plaintext.
unless somebody (probably: you) is willing to pay for an "officially
trusted" certificate (thawte,...), we have to use a certificate signed
by cacert.
you can either: manually accept the certificate presented by
puredata.info, or install the cacert root certificate as found on
http://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3
