if firefox encounters an http it says untrusted. I set something in some setting to *.* for https now all http sites are untrusted, can someone help me?
There was a configuration somewhere and I do not remember but it implied using https for all connections. Now when I tag home which is not encrypted, the bar will have the address https://(with my address requested), instead of http:// and I will get a page saying the site is not trusted. Somewhere I put in the configuration of something *.* for https. Now a secure site is all that firefox will allow as trusted.

Do you have an extension that can force https ?
- HTTPS Everywhere: http://www.eff.org/https-everywhere
- NoScript: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/noscript/
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

My problem was in NoScript config. Thank you for your observation. I had forced https only on every site by selecting NoScript options and under the "Advanced" tab goto "HTTPS" tab. In that tab, the box that is titled "Force the following sites to use secure (HTTPS) connection:"
I had *.* in that box.
To get to NoScript options: Tag the NoScript button and select > options.
