Firefox won't open any search with a search engine query. All are UNTRUSTED.

I run the operating system MS Windows 7 Premium with Kaspersky as my security software.

Then checked again. It seems to be security settings of Firefox and not Kaspersky causing the problem. Just in case it's Kaspersky, I added Google as an exception, but the problem persists. I also added Google as an exception of certificate in the Firefox config. and the problem still persists.

The problem:

I just can't open any page of web search in Firefox through any search engine because Firefox says that all are "unreliable", but I can open these pages in other web browsers.

Any search gives this:

Well the miserable loader does not load the image. So much for this, but basically, the notification is that "THIS CONNECTION IS UNTRUSTED" and the issuer of the certificate is unknown. Says error code "unknown sender".

I do not get the ability to ignore the warning, so I have no other choice but to close the page each time. A nightmare, what makes Firefox unusable. Not sure that this is being caused by a recent Google update or the update of Firefox.

I've checked then once again my security settings of Firefox and for the life of me, cannot understand why this has suddenly started happening out of the blue.

Please note:

1. I have Google as my search engine by default and Firefox as my home page.

2. I've updated automatically, but had to remove like my Firefox default browser - temporary I hope.

3. I've never used the default theme of Firefox.

4. I already re-set/updated the browser by using the refresh/reset link in everything: support/troubleshooting Information. That did not help.

5. I have Google as a reliable (in exceptional cases) site, in Firefox and Kaspersky, but that doesn't seem to help.

5. have you spent to help and clicked on everything: firefox and get this report:

Well there it is again - uploader is still running madly and never deliver - 10 minutes later - nothing downloaded. Version control on my Firefox in a dialog box States: 'FIREFOX 40.0.2 Firefox's update

6. again on another page the search for my problem, I see this:

Far out! Why this uploader freaking does not work? I have to type everything, besides being tedious, this gives you no verification. A line of text after another says:

"Congratulations!" You use the latest version of Firefox.
"Looks like you are using an older version of Firefox. Update on the Google game'
"Contgrats!" You use the latest version of Firefox.

Then further:

In an area of button: "Refresh Firefox" I made according to the description.

Immediately below that, it says:

'Looks like you are using an older version of Firefox'... and in a direct link below:

"updated to stay fast and safe"... Is this for real? [This would be more credible in a screenshot].

7 about: support/troubleshooting Information I deleted my profile page and restarted Firefox by following the instructions.

8. made no difference. Delete the file again and everything closed and restarted the system. That didn't work, either.

9. all the text that I read in Firefox 'aid' resembles a cached page. I can't reveal all 'real' web pages in Firefox browser in Firefox support at all for some reason any.

I love Firefox as a browser, but hate its constant glitches. For more than 10 years, I hate to admit it, I used that is never a problem. Then I switched to Google Chrome for another 5 years, with never a problem - outside the mining data and espionage which I hate and that's why I finally changed to Firefox. Firefox is the choice... but it's also a bloody choice as head banging and maybe it's just enough to make me give up on this.

https connections are there to make sure you're traffic is encrypted and you talk to the Web server that you expect to. What happens technically with kaspersky, it is essentially a man-in-the-middle attack, which firefox reports to you as it should be - your web traffic does not go to google when you type in www.google.com, but for kaspersky.
There are ways around that for av-vendors (such as the injection of their certificate root in the browser (it might go missing again after an update of firefox), but if there is a problem with you contact kaspersky support because they will be responsible for applying the product they offer properly.)

in all cases, allowing the characteristics as https in your av software can even let you more vulnerable, because browser vendors have now greater expertise in how to use and implement encryption properly: http://www.scmagazineuk.com/updated-kaspersky-leaves-users-open-to-freak-attack/article/411470/

    Firefox won't open a new tab on my browser - the option is there, but when I press nothing happens? I have checked all of my options, but couldn't find anything wrong?

    Hello, it seems that you run a very outdated version of firefox & old plugins - this is a serious security risk, because there have been dozens of corrected critical vulnerabilities from firefox 3.6 was released (it was more than two years ago).

    You must do the following as soon as possible:

    • Download and install the latest version of firefox from getfirefox.com
    • Check your plugins to https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ & update all those which are obsolete
    • You can also remove all the toolbars you have installed, because they can cause problems. in firefox, go to tools > addons > extensions and uninstall Yahoo! toolbar, motor driven, Radio TV 2.1 Community Toolbar and "Ask Toolbar". then you can launch the searchreset extension to restore the search parameters which leads crushed...

  • Windows Explorer crashes when you open any folder with MPEG2 files.

    WinXP SP3 - When you open any folder with MPEG2 files, windows Explorer crashes. If the folder contains only the MPEG1 files, it opens without a problem. We first thought it was a problem of media player, but we can not even click on a file to open it in media player.

    Hi kathyd,.

    ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

    Since we do not know what is causing this problem, I'd suggest unanimous the event viewer on your computer and check the details in the window logs messages/error codes important related to the question, during the time where this problem occurs and after return.

    Event logs can help you identify and diagnose the source of current system problems or help you predict potential system problems.

    Access the link below to learn how to view and manage the event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/event_overview_01.mspx?mfr=true

    You can try to start both computers in safe mode and check if it can open the folder where the MPEG 2 files are stored and if windows Explorer crashes. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

    I hope this helps. Post back with the required information.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • Tried all your suggestions and always receive "Unable to connect" when using ANY search engine.

    Can't use any search engine of FF 40.0.3 on Macbook Pro model with 10.8.5 OS 9.2. Receive "Unable to connect" message when you try to use a search engine. Other than the search engine and Mozilla Web sites to connect properly. 40.0.3 on another Mac FireFox works fine without any problems.

    In addition, I can not access the FF "Get modules" page or the home page of Mozilla. Search engines will connect not their home page or the search bar. Problem just started. I had previously been upgrade and have resorted, FF 40.0.3 without problem when it was issued. Solutions of attempts included refresh FF, launch FF in safe mode, run with all plugins disabled, graphics hardware acceleration disabled. None of these fixed the issue.

    Had already tried your suggestions, without success, but has once again to be sure. Without success. However, I made a further exploration of my own and found out that IPv6 is set to "Link Local" only in my router. I have reset on 'Automatic', the router reset to update, and my problem was solved. So it was the IPv6 setting (unlikely) or the router reset (probably) that solved the problem, or it is your suggestions I tried and did not work, COMBINED with the router reset which solved the problem (quite possible).

    Thanks for the comments!

  • How keep Google as a search engine on Firefox startpage, any search engine is in the upper drop box right?

    When I change the search engine in the upper search box right (to let's say Wikipedia), the search engine in the middle of the homepage Firefox changes accordingly. I don't want to do (I want to pin it to Google). How to do?

    The current versions of Firefox use the search engine that is selected in the search bar (click the search engine icon to open the drop-down list) on the Navigation bar for research via the address bar and for the search engine on the subject: homepage.

    If you want to use different search engines, then you can install the extension of search by keyword to specify with search engine to use for the search and address bar which engine to use for the topic: homepage via Windows Options/preferences of this extension, accessible via the on: addons page (Firefox > Add-ons).
