Hey guys. Recently, I've been getting this weird error with Firefox, on every single website I go to: "This Connection is Untrusted"

I basically couldn't use it anymore and had to uninstall it. I tried re-installing but, the error came back again. What is the issue here? :huh:

No, I'm not and this is only happening with Firefox. IE, Chrome, Safari, Opera are all working fine.

try looking in your privacy settings... was your DNS changed by viruses/spyware? maybe firefox is detecting something wonky there.

Well, the privacy settings are at default right now since I re-installed it. I even tried the new "Reset Firefox" feature. I am using v14 Beta 6. I've tried v13 Final too. I still get the same error. I don't really have any experience with DNS, I don't even know what that is really, lol. Here is an example of what I am talking about (screenshot):

Could this be related to a Java issue? I've recently been trying to update from Java 6 to Java 7 Update 4 but it always fails. There's never any explanation why and Firefox disabled Java automatically. Java 7 Update 4 x64 though, installed fine for IE x64.

If you have a security software that scans SSL, then try disabling it.

That worked, thanks! :) I am using ESET Smart Security 5.2.9.1. I chose the option where it said: "Do not scan SSL protocol". It then restored root certificates. I checked and Firefox was working. I then enabled it SSL scanning again to see if that indeed was the problem. Well, even after enabling it, Firefox worked.
