Hi Guys,

I need to configure firefox for deployment in my organization, I have a .cfg file that i am currently using and i need to add another option to it.

I need to disable the secure connection warning "This connection is not secure. Logins entered here could be compromised.

The below shows how to manually fix the issue but i need this done for every deployment of firefox

To Remove the Warning Panels

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste insec and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the security.insecure_field_warning.contextual.enabled preference to switch the value from true to false

(4) Assume this login could be easily stolen and avoid re-using it on important sites

Thank you
