How do i solve the Security Exception problem?
I'm still having to make an exception for my providers Security Certificate. It expired in July of 2016. From time to time TB will forget that I said to make the exception permanent. My provider doesn't seem to want to renew it and they get testy when I call. I'd like to know if there is a solution.

Got it! Thanks Well this thing has gotten to be a bit overwhelming. So for the moment I'm going to call it. I got a fast Mail account and the same thing happened. So the quest for answers moves on to Avast. Thanks for All the help and sorry for all the trouble. Too bad Mozilla and Avast can't get together and work things out. David

It is a matter of working with them. There is a recognized process to become a certifying authority. That process does not include hacking the existing system or asking users to add exceptions.
Mozilla policy is here https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/security-group/certs/policy/#inclusion
Apple has a policy here http://www.apple.com/certificateauthority/ca_program.html
Microsoft have theirs here https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc751157.aspx
The process is expensive and a large part of that is the auditing that goes on, however if Avast wish to be a certifying Authority, they know what they need to do. Instead that ask their users to basically compromise the web of trust that is the backbone of the SSL/TLS process. Why, because it costs them nothing.

This leads to the question; Why is Avast listed as an authority in Certificate manager?
you added them.DavidSorge said
