When an application wants to make a connection to a server for internet or updates it presents a signed server connection request. Recently, in order to get Firefox to connect to the internet, I have to approve unsigned server connection requests even though I know unsigned requests are open to abuse from hackers. How can I get Firefox and other applications from reliable suppliers to issue SIGNED server connection request? Please help. Regards.
