I've used Metronomeonline.com for years on Firefox. Suddenly I'm getting screens when I access the website telling me "Secure Connection Failed" and the site won't open. Next day it'll be fine but that evening the same block will appear. When I access the site on Chrome there's no problem at all. Can you help me?

This error means that the certificate for this server has been revoked.

Firefox seems to be the only browser that does the revocation (CRL) check in real-time, other browsers appear to download/update this CRL list from time to time and there it can take a few days before they are aware of a certificate revocation.

The website will have to acquire a new certificate. A similar recent report:
