OT Firefox 48.0.2 on Windows 7
Greetings, I had refreshed FF, and now I have trouble getting to sites. I get "Your connection is not secure". Even on FF's Health Report. Youtube no longer will play using FF. I have ESET as an anti-virus. However, I've kinda ruled the that out as a problem, since I can still get around using Opera. For the life of me, I can't figure out what changed since all I did was a refresh. Looked through numerous support pages, and uninstalled and reinstalled it with no positive results. I have disabled the add-ons and tried to no avail. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks |

It usually is #1 below. 1) check your date and time. Make sure your time zone it correct. http://www.techtalkz.com/windows-7/5...ndows-7-a.html To keep the time straight, I adore this little utility from NIST (Windows 7 does come with one, but ...): http://www.nist.gov/pml/div688/grp40/its.cfm 2) clear Firefox's cache (be careful you do not clears your passwords): https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb...lear+the+cache Exit and restart Firefox, try it again. Get back with the results. :-) -T |

Try a "reset". https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-preferences-fix-problems# "Reset Firefox preferences to troubleshoot and fix problems" Worked for me one time. Or boot in safe mode to see if FF works. |

I was developing a web page and suddenly ESET was flagging the ESRI content portal. I went to another machine and it still worked so I checked the virus definition stamp. The first machine was newer and several minutes later when ESET loaded the new definitions on the working machine I have the same problem. When I tried to report the problem to our IT people, their site was blocked too. All was good the next morning and ESET was reporting definitions with a number that was three versions greater. Fortunately the bad definitions were pushed out after the close of business for most people but I think the ESET phones were ringing all night until they got it fixed. |
