Why do I often come with an error message "Secure Connection Failed" when browsing or searching google. is the problem wiyh google or actually firefox.

Every then and now I get this error message while doing a research on google, or switching my search from web to search. Is the problem actually with google or firefox, because when this occurs I simply go to yahoo. It would actually be great if this error message quit showing up, either you guys call google and try to have this fixed or talk to your guys to fix this error. I don't understand why it's showing up when i'm already doing a search and write something else to research.
Thanks for reading this and understanding the frustration

  • I've updated to FF26 and get the follow error message "Secure Connection Failed" why is that?

    ever since I've updated to FF26 some of the sites won't come up and show the following error message:
    Secure Connection Failed
    An error occurred during a connection to www.facebook.com. SSL peer rejected a handshake message for unacceptable content. (Error code: ssl_error_illegal_parameter_alert)
    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. Alternatively, use the command found in the help menu to report this broken site.
    it does not happens all the time but most of the times.
    this also occurs on google.com, twitter.com and many more.
    what to do?

    Do you have the option to turn off the feature of Kaspersky scanning your SSL traffic? Usually that can be turned off (e.g., in ESET and BitDefender).

  • Hi Guys, I have completely lost access to Gmail and all Google accounts via Firefox - error message "secure connection failed Error code: sec_error_bad_der

    I have been a long time Firefox user and this is the first time I am truly baffled. Now if I try to log into gmail or any google account on my main PC I just get an error message as below.
    Secure Connection Failed
    An error occurred during a connection to accounts.google.com. security library: improperly formatted DER-encoded message. (Error code: sec_error_bad_der)
    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
    I have tried reinstalling, clearing cache, clearing cookies, and just about every other thing I can think of but to no avail. I can access through IE and also via firefox on my other PCs but no joy on my main PC. Please help as this one is stumping me.
    Many thanks for your help.

  • Problems with receiving error message "This Connection is Untrusted" for any https sites. On version 17.0.1 of firefox. IE does not get error.

    whenever I go to an https site, I get this error message. My other browsers are not having the same issue. I deleted cert8.db as one site suggested. Stopped using firefox due to this issue. example: www.comcast.net, once I sign into email, I get this error message. Amazon.com - same issue. So, these are very common sites. This only started in past two weeks.

    Does updating to Firefox 18 (which comes out today) help? It fixed a few issues with certificates.

    Did you try it with the iTunes your Mac already has?
    Try running Software Update in your System Preferences.  That should bring your computer up to the latest software available for 10.4.  You would end up with an older version of iTunes, but that may be good enough to activate your iPad.

  • Why with Firefox 33.0 do I get "secure connection failed" when I bring up my banking site, but it doesn't happen using Firefox 32.0.3?

    The website comes up fine but "secure connection failed" shows in the space where I'm supposed to put my account number. (I'm prevented from putting my account number in that field.) This computer is running Win 7 Pro. The older version of Firefox on another computer with Win XP has no such problem with the website, nor does the IE browser on this computer.

    One possibility is: Some users had problems with secure sites starting in Firefox 31 related to the new PKIX security component, and worked around it by disabling it. Starting in Firefox 33, it can no longer be disabled, and that setting is ignored.
    Are you comfortable posting the address of the login page so others could see whether they have the same experience with the form?

    This is because Chrome does not use Adobe Flash Player. Chrome uses something called Pepper Flash, maintained by Google (not Adobe). The issues you are experiencing are Adobe Flash Player issues. You should be able to get assistance with these issues [https://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer/using_flashplayer on the Adobe forums].

  • Firefox keeps asking to install Flash. When I attempt this, I get an error message stating it failed. Flash works in Google Chrome, but not FF.

    I don't know what happened but Firefox keeps asking me to install Flash. When I attempt to install the program, I get an error message that it has failed. There is no other information given and I'm just left hanging. I've tried this over twenty times with the same results. I've even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox, but this continues. I'm unable to watch any YouTube videos. I then installed Google Chrome and all is working fine. I can't stand the Google company though and really with I could continue using Firefox. Why is GC working for me any FF not? How can I fix this?

    Google Chrome comes with its own Flash plugin, so doesn't require to install Flash separately.
    You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page.
    *http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    You may have to run the Flash installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator) and make sure that Firefox and possibly other browsers are closed.

  • Secure Connection Failed (Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)

    Hello
    I'm having troulbes accessing HP iLO with FF 36.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, getting the following error message:
    ====================================
    Secure Connection Failed
    An error occurred during a connection to 172.25.X.X. Issuer certificate is invalid. (Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)
    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
    ====================================
    It seems to work with other browser such as Chromium, so the problem seems to be FF 36.0. Unfortunately, I don't have an "Add exception" button in FF that would allow me to bypass this warning.
    I've already followed the following links:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/secure-connection-failed-error-message
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems
    But I didn't managed to get it work. Any idea how to get it fixed?

    I have a better answer, upgrade to version 37 via bug 1138332
