My college had some tech issues yesterday and most of the site was down. They fixed it but I still can't access my email. I've flushed my history and caches, restarted etc etc. I still get a msg telling me that firefox doesn't trust the info being sent:


Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to mymcc.monroecc.edu:8008. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. (Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)
