Bitdefender blocked a firefox connection due to "unmatching security certificate"

I have had this message from Bitdefender numerous times: "firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to push.services.mozilla.com. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since the used certificate was issued for a different web address than the targeted one." What does this mean & what should I do about it?

The connection has timed out
The server at push.services.mozilla.com is taking too long to respond.
