Yes it does. Must be some other problem with the French web site.

I can access the home web page w/o issue in Firefox. However, selecting any content on that page results in the Secure Connection Failed message.
I scanned the web site at QUALS SSL Server test web site which noted the site uses HSTS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security . HSTS is used to protect against man-in-the-middle attacks which is actually what Eset is doing when intercepting browser web traffic to scan it via its HTTPS scan processing.
Appears HSTS processing is handled differently in Chrome/Edge than in Firefox when Eset HTTPS scanning is deployed.

Strangely the site worked for me ONCE. After i closed the tab and went back and tried to reload im getting the same "Secure Connection Failed" message as the OP.
Then i closed the tab and retried and it worked again ....... Strange stuff

Refer to this forum posting: https://forum.eset.com/topic/9714-ssl-inspection-exclusion/?do=findComment&comment=50366
Just remember that with the web site excluded, Eset won't scan'detect malware delivered via HTTPS for the web site.
