Since updating Firefox yesterday I have been getting a "This connection is not secure. Logins entered here could be compromised. Learn More" pop-up on every page where it thinks there's login information. I've tried without success to resolve this with the System Preferences on my MacBookPro as well as within Firefox.

This is extremely problematic as my job requires me to set up accounts for our Agents. In the screenshot below you'll see that I'm already logged into the website (fathomrealty.com/backend) and creating accounts for our Agents. But it's giving me this error even when I'm trying to create accounts WITHIN the system - not just when I'm trying to log into the system.

This is not just happening on the site I mentioned in the example below or on the screenshot. This is happening on every single site I have visited since updating Firefox. I am extremely frustrated and in need of assistance. I have spent the better part of two days trying to remedy the issue and have found nothing that works. I'd like to turn off all together whichever security setting is now causing this issue. I can't work this way and if needed I'll have to change browsers completely (It does not happen in Chrome or Safari). Please help me..... Thank you, DeJane Kerr

Is this what you are talking about?

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/insecure-password-warning-firefox There is a hidden preference to turn off the warning on the login form if it really annoys you and you think it will never be of value. Here's how: security.insecure_field_warning.contextual.enabled = False security.insecure_password.ui.enabled = False

Type about:config<enter> in the address bar. If a warning screen comes up, press the Be Careful button. At the top of the screen is a search bar.

You can check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.

You can click the "Advanced" button to expand this section and show extra details. If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER) then click the blue error message to expand this section and show the certificate chain. Please click "Copy text to clipboard" and paste this base64 encoded certificate chain text in a reply. That will allow us to check details like the issuer of the certificate.

Otherwise please attach a screenshot of the error page.
