I keep getting the "secure connection failed" message when I try to access a website that has never been blocked previously. Supposedly I should get an "advanced" option on the page that will allow me to connect anyway, but that is nowhere to be found. 

This site runs scheduling software for volunteer committees at our church and I must have access to it.

Please advise as to how to override the block. Thanks

Security Issue: Update your Adobe Reader Version 2015.016.20039 Note: Other Software is offered in the download.

There is security software like Avast and Kaspersky and BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connections and send their own certificate.
