Why do I keep getting Access Denied error messages when I try to open common sites like Lowes or Autozone? These sites have always worked with no problem for many years but now do not open. I have tried deleting all my history but they still don't work. Ready o quit FireFox.

Please explain the problem in detail. What does/dosn't happen? What are the exact error messages?


There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connection certificates and send their own.
