"This Connection is Untrusted" without the "I Understand the Risks" option?

I am running Firefox 33.1 on Windows 7 Ultimate. In the recent past I get the "This Connection is Untrusted" message every single time I sign into a hotel or airlines club to get access to the internet. The accompanying "I Understand the Risks" option is not present, just the "Get Me Out of Here." If I did not have Opera and Chrome and IE on my computer as a back-up I would not be able to access the internet other than when I am at home. Please do not suggest clearing cache and cookies. In my 30 + years of computing experience the only time that has helped is with a password issue, when a password seems to get locked in.

hello ChrystinP, what kind of security software are you using on your system?

does it make a difference when you go into the firefox menu ≡ > options > advanced > network > connection - settings... and set firefox to directly connect to the internet (that's the 'no proxy' option)?

It's set at the "no proxy" option, already.

Does it help if you switch to one of the others like "Use the system proxy settings"?
