I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox as it was running slowly. After install it gave the error- your connection is not secure- for Google and other search engines. Other websites and other browsers worked fine.
I tried suggestions given on Google that didn't work. The most common suggestion was that the antivirus was scanning https connections and should be turned off. I didn't see this option with Webroot Secure Anywhere.
I eventually restored Firefox from a Shadowprotect backup and it works perfectly with no changes to webroot. Any ideas why Firefox gave this error after install?
Firefox error after install
Hi Larry,
Welcome to the Webroot Community.
I use Firefox and have never seen this issue, however, I did find some info on the subject from Mozilla HERE.
Hope this info helps,

That's the page I was following and nothing worked. It's weird that it only happened after uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. Firefox worked perfectly when restored from a backup.

I just had to reinstall Firefox about a month ago and, thankfully, didn't run into any issues. Hopefully it was just some sort of glitch in the installation. Glad to hear that you had a backup and that it works ok for you now.
