How do I turn off the blocking of untrusted connections? I just want to get on to my email
I just want to be able to get on sites that it tells me are untrusted. Like my email. It only gives me the option of Get Me Outta Here!. I want to allow these sites to be used. How do I do that??

type: about:config in your address bar and search for "browser.ssl_override_behavior" double click the value and change "2" to "1" this will remove Blocks for SSL Related Problems.
for the specific website like your email go to that website and as soon as the "untrusted connection" appears Click the "Add Exception" button at the bottom of the warning message box.
Click and enable the "Permanently Store This Exception" option. Click the "Confirm Security Exception" button. The window closes and Firefox no longer displays the warning message or blocks access to the site. You must add the exception for every untrusted site you want to browse

I seriously doubt that. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.ssl_override_behavior
If Firefox cannot confirm that the certificate of a secure site is valid and correct, it will display an "Add Security Exception" dialog.
The problem usually arises when the server's certificate is invalid for some reason. Problems can include certificates expiring, being incorrectly named, or claiming a certificate authority that is not in Firefox' list of valid authorities. See SSL Security Error on the MozillaZine site for detailed information about the kind of errors that might occur. http://kb.mozillazine.org/SSL_Security_Error
Often this problem takes care of itself, in that the server provider will realize that they have made an error with their certificate and will replace it with a corrected version. Certificate errors can also occur due to malware on your computer, or anti-virus software attempting to intercept the secure connection to the server.
If the error persists you must make a judgement about whether you want to trust the server and create an exception (via the "Add Security Exception" dialog) or stop using the affected service.
Blindly adding a Security Exception without checking what's going on is bad advice and potentially dangerous.

If you get the red 'Get Me Outta Here!" page then this means that the phishing protection got triggered.
Can you post a link?
Please add a space around the '.' in the domains name to prevent the forum from making the link clickable.
The BrowserProtect plugin caused this for me. I could not even get to support.mozilla.org. Uninstalled it & the problem disappeared.
