As of a few days ago SSL certificates served on Bluehost are not being recognised as secure in Firefox browsers. They were until very recently.

All I can see in the Firefox Community Support is stuff relating to versions +TLSv1 +TLSv1.1 +TLSv1.2 needing to be updated to SSLProtocol -ALL +SSLv3 +TLSv1.2?

Doesn't really help me as I can't tell a host how to run their servers! Or is there any other exp;anation?

You can check the server.

Yes, I had already done that. I put in one of my domains and it gave it an A rating, though there were warnings about Server Name Indication for a few browsers and specific devices. But the SSL warnings in some browsers are still persisting.
