#1207: Einstein toolkit sites with invalid security certificates

https://einsteintoolkit.org exists but has an invalid security certificate
(http://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html#hostname=einsteintoolkit.org).
I don't think we need SSL/TLS on this server. It should either be
disabled or a valid certificate used.
The same applies to https://cactuscode.org (http://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-
checker.html#hostname=cactuscode.org).
Note that Frank's page (http://www.cct.lsu.edu/~knarf/cgi-bin/monitor.cgi)
reports these certificates as self-signed; they are also expired. Self-
signed certificates on public websites are bad: they encourage people to
click through the warnings.
