Secure connection failed

more options

Hello,

One website gives me a failed secure connection:

An error occurred while connecting to www.cdkeypt.pt. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR

This error is in Firefox but this site doesn't work in any browser

I restart the pc when it re-enters the desktop if i open the browser before the computer fully starts the site works fine which makes me conclued that something is interfering with it and it most be an update or something because i didn't install anything new, but what? it is only this site that doesn't work all the others are working fine.

I tested opening the site in another pc in my network and it works fine.

I hope someone can help me,

Thanks

I personally would suspect a man in the middle. That could be security software which intercepts your browsing, or it might be some malware. To try to gather a little more information, on the error page, Advanced section, could you click View Certificate and see whether the Issuer (Issued by section) shows anything unusual? When I check the site, they have a "Let's Encrypt" certificate.

The information i get from the page is in the attachment and when i click "saber mais" which is "know more" it goes to a page to solve the problem but i tried all that and it didn't work. https://support.mozilla.org/pt-PT/kb/ligacao-segura-falhou-e-o-firefox-nao-ligou?as=u&utm_source=inproduct i am from Portugal só all is in Portuguese.

Where can i see the certificate?

Oh sorry, there are two kinds of connection errors and the one you're getting doesn't have the Advanced button.

Do you know whether your internet access is filtered by security software or parental control software?

I have kaspersky total security but parental control is off

I send another attachment from the security tab saying that the connection is no encrypted

Did you try clearing Firefox's web cache in case an old file is causing this problem? Steps here: How to clear the Firefox cache.

You could temporarily stop having Kasperky intercept your HTTPS requests to see whether that makes any difference. I think the following article has the steps for that: How to troubleshoot security error codes on secure websites.

I uninstalled Kaspersky and restarted the pc some problem the page works for a few seconds then the site stops working, i reinstalled Kaspersky an restarted same problem just a few seconds were i went for the certificate i send the attachment of it saying all is find.

The other odd thing is that now i can opened the main page all is fine but if a click on a link or use search it goes back to failed secure connection.

I tryed to clear the cache i also deleted all temporary files but no joy.

I used kaspersky full scan and microsoft malwere tool full scan but nothing was detected.

This i trully a mystery.

Same PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR Issue again with Firefox Developer Edition and trying to sync. It seems that profile.accounts.firefox.com is blocked by firefox. And no no VPN, Profiles or AV issues since works in other browsers.

Indeed, check attachment, the site is blocked in FF. Opening api and accounts.firefox.com seems ok. Open the same URL using Brave/Chrome seems working and the API json is shown, but under Developer Edition this is not working ..

I must admit I do not really understand what happens and how I should debug the issue. Any ideas?

Any plans to actually fix this? None of these work arounds have worked for me. It happens on so many websites that I might as well give up and go back to chrome, at least it works even if it does constanly sell my info to its constituants.
