Mozilla is kicking my ########

[CosmosK]

I'm trying to renew hosting etc. I'm getting tripped up by Mozilla. I've tried tons of searching. Figured I'd put it here as there are many computer gurus here.

I'm getting tons of "security certificate" errors. When I say accept, the webpage seems limited. Example:



This in not what this page usually looks like.

Any one know what you'd call this? I can't tell what form this is being displayed in so it's hard for me to search for a solution to it.

I've reinstalled Firefox a half dozen times. I have another computer and there is no issue on it. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

I got a new error when I tried to preview this post:

i would start by trying a different browser, and see what errors come up there.

you have posted 2 different URLs which are both demonstrating problems, as you say,and you google the following terms to help out:

ssl_error_bad_mac_alert how to fix

does not seem to be with your hosting, but more with the browser you are currently using.

I've been googling things all afternoon to no avail. Yes, other browsers work. It seems sucky to have to switch to Chrome or IE because Firefox is completely screwed up. Thanks though.

Effectively the css is not being displayed/loaded. This can happen if say a communication protocol (SSL3) is enabled on the browser, but denied by the communication traffic or when accessing a page served only under https: yet has been reached by http:...

Might also have some sort of filtering software such as virus protection, firewall, etc... Thinking that may be what provided back a mac address that is invalid giving the second error... Both pages were attempted to be reached via https: no problems getting to google? (Since they have gone to https: for all queries...)

I tried a bunch of the ssl3 stuff this morning. Unfortunately, it's not clearing things up. I think I give up. I'll use IE for now. I very much appreciate the help!! Lost several hours to this, so I think I'm going to throw in the towel.

Well, I happened upon a solution, at least so far things seem to be back to normal. I ditched Firefox and installed Waterfox. Go figure. All the css now loads and I can get to all the https pages I was having problems with before.
