Is Firefox the worst of the big 3 browsers?

My God, have they regressed or what. The browser wants to throw a security exception to pretty much any website I want to go to...doesn't matter how legitimate the website is.
Today it is not allowing me to log into my school's email which is Gmail based. See below error. I can't even override this fricking this with an 'Add exception' certificate.
I knew there was a reason Firefox sucked and today was reminded me of why it blows. No wonder they are losing market share faster than BlackBerry.

You should look at the technical details. I only get that notification when something is wrong with the security certificate of the server I'm trying to access. If you're getting it for lots of sites that should be fine, I wonder if your computer or connection has been hacked or misconfigured. I also think "Add Exception" is under the Technical Details.

Likely not a Firefox issue

this.
also if you're tech savvy and running 'fiddler tool' that will generate that message.
shut fiddler down & try it again.
also if you clear history/cookies/etc in the middle of a browser session that might happen.
its not firefox's fault.

Ummm...it works fine on Chrome and IE...no errors or exceptions whatsoever. Firefox doesn't want to play nice for some reason. I am on my office network if that matters.

Firefox works fine for me. In fact, I'm running FF 3.0.11 (required for our outdated database program) and TD.com works like a charm.

that means the digital certificate, SSL, on the server you are accessing has expired or is self signed. The reason the other two does not show it is because you have security settings in those browsers that ignore the error. Firefox and Chrome are the two best browsers in the world.
