After recent update (to version 53.0.3 32 bit) I am receiving an error message on many https sites I was accessing on the previous day. I have no problems accessing these sites on other browsers like IE. The error message tends to be "Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to hdontap.com. Peer’s certificate has an invalid signature. Error code: SEC_ERROR_BAD_SIGNATURE." The discussion on the help page does not seem to apply. I tried using the green button below to "Automatically add" troubleshooting information but that fails.
