Most likely it's your antivirus injecting itself into the https: stream.
What A/V are you using?

As mentioned above -- it is likely security software on your computer causing this (especially if the issue is rampant)...

Beyond that, you might read over this topic: Secure connection errors? **READ THIS FIRST!**

yes, yes, blame the administrator for not allowing it (even GOOGLE was thought to have 'unrecognized' cert!),
BUT!!! why does my old FF53.2 let *everything* through??? :shock: :P

(when I test FF, i have to go and make a cup :coffee: , by which time it has *eventually* :zzz: cranked itself into motion... :roll: )

It is not possible 'just switch off' the AV when it is managed by the central server on the work domain.. :problem: :sick:

I saw a while back that FF can use the 'windows repository' to authenticate everything, and found an about:config setting
to enable this (no need for admin, it just uses the windows info used by IE! ) it worked great in PM 25 :)

Unfortunately this detail was lost in a some odd crash/ blunder while loading an upgrade.. :roll: :roll: :o

could your addon 'Integrated Authentication for SeaMonkey and Pale Moon ' help? there is almost NO documentation ,
have I missed it somewhere??? Work is using Windows Server 2012, to Handle win 7 PCs..

PM 32.4.1(64bit) on win7(64bit) sp1 - does ytoobe better than FF!! 8-) :lol: :P
