Good day-

My Firefox for Windows, 64 bit just updated and I have lost all functionality. I receive "The owner of www.mozilla.org 9 or firefox.com or google. com, etc) has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website." (not just the Mozilla URL, but all URLs) I have tried rebooting, flushing cache, reinstalling, etc. and nothing seems to work. All works properly under Chrome. I disabled certain apps (I think) and that does not appear to be the problem. Please help as I miss my Firefox! Win10

Thanks.

hi, first please make sure that the date, time & timezone are set correctly set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a solution depends on the individual circumstances:

  • what is the error code shown when you click on advanced on that error page?
  • please also give us more information about the error by clicking on the error code, copying the text to the clipboard and then pasting it here into a reply in the forum.

thank you!

  • Also:*

www.mozilla.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

thanks, so it appears like bitdefender is intercepting your secure connections. please see if the section about your security software at How to troubleshoot security error codes on secure websites or else reinstalling it helps...
