Connection is not secure message for AOL search

Hi,

Ever since the new version of Firefox was released I have not been able to search on my main AOL page which is my home page. I get this error message about "Your connection is not secure". I have always used AOL as my home page and NEVER had a problem searching until now. How can I fix this problem? It is a pain to have to go to Internet Explorer to get my answers. Is it a bug in your new Quantum version?

 Update:  I cannot search ANYTHING AT ALL. Every search brings this error message. I just checked this certificate and it is OK. See below:

OK,

I was able to find a fix around this problem in case anybody else has it later. Apparently the problem occurs only when I am signed in to check my AOL mail with my Screen-name. If I log out of the AOL mail and Screen-name then I can search anything without getting an error message on the main AOL.com page.

I was able to do this before with no problems. Be signed in to my mail and search at the same time something has changed either with AOL mail or Firefox. If anybody has any ideas please let me know.

Thank you,

Amy
