Firefox will try to keep you safe and so if you have used both http and the secure https version of a page will use the https method.

As for the connection being reset there are a few possible reasons including problems with the site you are trying to use or problems with internet connection or speed. If it is only a few problem sites it may be that you need to clear the cookies for that site. The grey warning triangle may be normal for a particular site. See also
