When I try to log in to firefox to access the internet mail (yahoo) I get the following message.."You have asked Firefox to connect securely to us.mg6.mail.yahoo.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verify If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue." So I have stopped using Firefox for the last two weeks and need to know what to do. I like Firefox so this will be unfortunate if I have to quit using it.
