Every time MWO asks me to sign in, Chrome gives me a message box saying that mwomercs.com has revealed my credentials in an unsecure manner and that I should change all my passwords as a precaution. This is the only site that generates that response.

Try different browser. Firefox has no issues with the web site. Pretty sure if there was such an issue as a data breach pgi support would have sent an e-mail out. Pgi sucks on a lot of things but their support is good.

I am not getting such a message from Chrome.
What you're writing sounds more like a problem with the SSL encryption between you and the site.
Screenshot of the exact error message, please. No cropping, if there's any sensitive/personal information please block it out instead.
Also, what's your OS?

Also, a list of installed extensions. Some of them can be a man in the middle.

I had a similar problem after an update to IQue, the Corsair headset software. Not identical, because it was other sites where I got the warning about site security. Finally wiped Windows 10 and got rid of it, but did not use the IQue software, now I just use the windows sound controls.

This. Logging in via Chrome on 2 different computers do not generate said message.
