Secure connection failed error using firefox
Hello,
I have a problems related with firefox the error “Secure connection failed”.
XYZ .com uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate will not be valid until 11/2/2009 7:00 PM.
(Error code: sec_error_expired_certificate)
- This could be a problem with the server's configuration, or it could be someone trying to impersonate the server.
- If you have connected to this server successfully in the past, the error may be temporary, and you can try again later."
I can not use Internet explorer.
Thanks in advance for any help

Possible fix:
You can tell Firefox to bypass these warnings. You should only bypass the warning if you're sure that the site is legitimate. Legitimate public sites will not ask you to do this. An invalid certificate can be an indication of a web page that will defraud you or steal your identity.
1. On the warning page, click Or you can add an exception.
2. Click Add Exception. The Add Security Exception dialog will appear.
3. Click Get Certificate.
4. Read the text describing the problems with this site.
5. Click Confirm Security Exception if you want to trust the site.

Yes the message is NORMAL, but one should have the ability to IGNORE if one chooses to. Firefox 3 isn't giving the option though. Easy fix: set you system clock back a month, log in, then reset your clock. if still you are facing any problem Switch to Opera or an internet explorer as an alternative
Re: Secure connection failed error using firefox
Firefox uses certificates on secure websites (those that start with https:) to ensure that your information is being sent to the intended recipient and can't be read by eavesdroppers. To keep you secure, Firefox will warn you if there's a problem with a site's certificate. Note that these warnings don't mean that you currently have a security problem; they just mean that you could have one if you access the site they block. for more details please see this article https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb...nection+Failed

Is your system date correct ?
SSL websites will be having problems if you're not having correct date.
