I have administered a site for a local historical society for many years. Now I am unable to edit the site and I get a box saying 'secure connection failed' . I do not have this problem with Chrome but I am a Firefox user and want to stay that way.

There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connection certificates and send their own.

Hi berniewoiwod, we also have an article on that error message here:

Secure connection failed and Firefox did not connect

If that doesn't help, can you paste more detail from the error page? If you don't want to tell us the site, change that part to example.com or something like that.
