  1. After I did the Fire Fox thing and could not get to any sites. Included in the warnings, there was something about certificates, which got me looking around here. I remembered seeing something about SSL in this forum. So, I disabled SSL filtering and I could get to sites. At that point I asked the question here. I enabled the filter a few minutes ago and now everything seems to be working. I looked at the FF certificates, not knowing what I was looking for. My only thought is that the refresh of FF downloaded was faulty and another direct download was ok. I did not know a refresh actually downloaded a new copy and installed it. Was wondering what that was all about. Who knows ? After all this is Windows ! And Windows 10 at that !
  2. There have been posts about ssl having to be turned off in SS9. I ran into the problem yesterday. Is there a cure besides turning off ssl scanning ? After I refreshed Fire Fox, I could not connect to any web sites because of different warnings. Just happened to find posts about turning off ssl in V9. I just asked what the permanent fix will be..
  3. Did not find anything with a search. Provided I tried the correct terms.
  4. I just refreshed FF and it almost looks like their certificate store got corrupted. Many web sites have a security warning This was one which went away Your connection is not secure The owner of www.google.com has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website. This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate. I put the SS9 firewall back into learning mode and now get notification of new rules that should have been in from the previous learning mode. Could SS9 be causing a problem reading certificates ? Just got a warning about Facebook ssl
  5. 1> search doesn't work 2>IE is set as default browser 3>This time> could not add certificate to all browsers 4>Settings go to Control Panel I am sure there are plenty more. I posted to see if anyone else had a problem that might be caused with SS9. I am checking prices on Apple MACs.
  6. I have had to do a repair reinstall both times. Any way to completely disable ESS9 the next time MS tries something ?
  7. I put the rule in and got alerts for every program/process using the internet, must check the hosts file. Killed the rule after about 10 alerts. Also caused a error with my wireless connection. Running Win 10 Pro For me, a bad rule
  8. As a user, I just tried to see the problem. I saw it happen, to put it bluntly, WHO GIVES A DAMN ? I for one, think about all the software problems out in the wild and couldn't care about something that has nothing to do with how well a security program works.
  9. Trying to figure out MS and Windows 10 out, it like playing the lottery. That is one of the options I disabled as soon as I found it.
  10. Forgot to ask and could not find answer. Does Smart Security do auto renew when year is up ? If so where is the opt out ? Tnx
  11. Someone goofed, which is "normal" these days. I got version 349? and it appears to be working ok. I did not have any problems with version 319 ? Tomarrow I will install it on my second desktop and hope for the best.
  12. I guess they don't like the English Language. GET WITH IT !!!
  13. If you would have looked through the settings, you would have found a setting for the splash screen.
  14. I don't keep it loaded all the time, but it is still slowed down by SS9.
  15. Thank You. Should I wait for the butterflies to shake out ?? Just kidding. Will give a couple days to see how it goes.
  16. Do I really have to go through the things uninstalling V8 before installing v9 I have been reading about ? network adapter and some other filter ?
