Sites I previously visited and conducted business on are now unavailable or display as some variant of text/hotlinks due to what appears to be security certificate links.. Running Firefox on Windows 10. Chrome and IE do not have problem.

You may indeed be visiting incorrect sites, but it is probably more likely that some software, such as some security scanner or filter is intercepting this and changing the certificate. You may need to change the software settings to work correctly with Firefox.

Please make a note of the exact error messages and also list what security related software you use.
