Certificates for secure websites (the address begins with https://) are valid only for a certain period of time. If a website presents a certificate with validity dates that don't match the date on your computer's clock, Firefox can't verify that it is secure and will show you an error page.

Click the Windows Start button or press the Windows key. In the Start menu, select Settings. In Settings, select Time & language. In the Date & time section, you can review the current date and time settings. If you are done with your changes, close the Settings window.
