FIREFOX CONNECTION UNTRUSTED FOR EVERY PAGE MAC SOFTWARE

I’m not sure what effect turning off “Scan SSL” will have on security, but I have had other security software installed without such an option, so I’m not too worried. Sure enough, no certificate error was reported and I as able to access my e-mail without any issues.

Once the status icon for “Scan SSL” indicated it was off, shown below, I then returned to the home window of Bitdefender.Īfter performing the above steps I opened Firefox and accessed my Gmail account.

Next, I click the status button for the “Scan SSL” option to turn it off.

I then clicked on the privacy settings icon from the Bitdefender home windows.

I double-clicked the Bitdefender Total Security 2013 icon in the system tray (lower-right corner).

These are the steps I used to correct the issue: From there I began to look through the settings, and eventually I found the one that was causing the problem. When I noticed that Bitdefender was mentioned I immediately thought about the fact that Bitdefender Total Security 2013 was installed on my desktop. Once I looked at the certificate details, I began to find the solution to my problem.

When the certificate general details were displayed, I noticed that the “Issued By” section listed Bitdefender as the organization, as shown below.

While I didn’t want to add a security section, I can find out more information about the certificated by click the “View…” button.

From within that section I then clicked the “Add Exception…” button.

I click the “I Understand the Risks” option to expand that section.

There was more details to the issue than just that message on the screen. Whenever I accessed any Web page from within Google I always received the following error message within Mozilla Firefox: Mozilla Firefox – This Connection is Untrusted Issue

Below are the steps I used to solve the issue so I could access Gmail from within Firefox. In fact the error appeared whenever I access any page within Google, and only Firefox displayed the error, and no other Web browser.Īfter some quick research into the problem, I managed to trace the problem to Bitdefender Total Security 2013, and then find what tool within that security suite was causing the problem. I don't know who to ask, hoping for answers here.As I mentioned in my review of Bitdefender Total Security 2013, I ran into an issue where Mozilla Firefox would display a certificate error on my screen when I accessed my Gmail account. I use Chrome too, but I like to use both. I don't know what to do now, I only seem to be making it worse, and I don't want to give up on Firefox. My date and time is correct, refreshing seems useless since it came to be right after refreshing. I have googled this too and tried everything I can find, except change settings in about:config because I am scared to.

The error code is this: (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer). Every single page I try to load gives me the message "This Connection is Untrusted". At that point the address bar said, but the page was blank and said Page Not Found. AdwareMedic didn't find anything, but Avast found some viruses that I deleted, then restarted the computer. I also downloaded two virus scanners, AdwareMedic and Avast. (I am not very techy.) Among the advice was clearing all history and restarting, and deleting Firefox and reinstalling. I tried all the advice that I came across, unless it seemed too involved and techy. Through googling I learned that the pop-up messages were fake and also part of this issue. Sometimes I got a warning message that started beeping loudly! That's when I started thinking I needed to fix this. Then the home page started opening with a congratulatory message, and I was supposed to click on it to go on.

I think I updated Java and had no other issues with that (maybe it was legitimate?), but Adobe Flash seemed to update, but I kept getting the messages.

Recently, I started getting pop-up windows telling me that I needed to update Java and Adobe Flash. I will try to remember everything that has happened and everything that I have done.įor probably months the home page has been something unfamiliar instead of what I wanted it to be, but I ignored it and just moved on to the sites I wanted to go to. But it seems to have caught a virus/malware/adware, which I have been trying to fix, and now it's worse than ever.
