I'm attempting to get to a website that I am unable to get a secure connection to. I'm under the impression from the Mozilla support page that I should be able to bypass it by clicking on the advanced button, but from the attached screenshot, there is no way to do that.

Hi, ya that does happen. What Security Software are you running please in both System and in Firefox ?

There is security software like Avast/AVG, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET and sometimes Mcafee that intercept secure connections and send their own certificate.

What is the exact error message?

It shouldn't be necessary to create an exception and bypass the warning. You should always investigate such issue and try to fix them.

Can you attach a screenshot?
