I use Firefox on my macbook for school and just a few minutes ago it said Secure Connection Failed and there was an extra tab telling me that there was a virus on my browser. So the problem is whenever I try to go on a site, it stops me and shows me the Secure Connection Failed page and I tried pressing shift while left clicking the reload button and restarted the browser and my laptop but it didn't work. So I went ahead and got on MacKeeper to clean up my mac but the problems still there. I would like to ask how can I fix this (both safari and chrome doesn't work on my laptop), and thank you for taking your time to answer this.
