I had no problem with the link you posted. Such errors are usually caused by a problem with the site certificate.

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

Thank you. I tried updating Adobe Flash but had the same result.

I don't use any system security.

Neither Internet Explorer nor Maxthon can access the site...

I have never had this issue previously with any other websites.

I can access the website using my mobile phone over the same wifi connection.

The internet is a very dangerous place for those who have no protection. We recommend using a firewall, anti-virus, and malware scanner programs.

Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

The 'educated guesses' below are incorrect. I use Comodo Ice Dragon 60.0.2.10 & Windows 7, not Firefox 59.0 or Windows 10.

The Mozilla website, and most others, ask the browser for some information so that the web page can be properly displayed. (Type computer, type browser . . .)

I stopped using security about 10 years ago, no problems. I download 2 or 3 av & malware progs every few months for a scan, they bring up a few pups, that's all. I had many more problems when previously using security softwares.

I don't have Firefox installed, I don't use it.

Because this is the last sentence of the error page...

"Report errors like this to help Mozilla identify and block malicious sites."

At the start of the sentence is a tick box to turn this option on or off.

Interesting. You get a green lock; what is the address in the address bar at that point? I ask because there is quite a sequence of redirects with this site:

When my Firefox requests

https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/

The server sends a 302 redirect:

Location: http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server sends a 302 redirect (from vHTTP to HTTPS):

Location: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server realizes I haven't sent a necessary cookie and sends a 302 redirect to an age gate page:

Location: //www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/agegate

After I submit the age form, the site sends a 303 redirect to

Location: //www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server sends a 302 redirect to:

Location: http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/home

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server sends a 302 redirect (from HTTP to HTTPS):

Location: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/home

So that seems to be the ultimate destination. You might want to bookmark that page.

If I start again after the site has set the age verification cookie:

https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/

The server sends a 302 redirect:

Location: http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server sends a 302 redirect (from vHTTP to HTTPS):

Location: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server sends a 302 redirect to:

Location: http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/home

When Firefox follows the redirect, the server sends a 302 redirect (from HTTP to HTTPS):

Location: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/home

WIth green lock: https://elderscrollsonline.com

But I have taken your bookmark recommendation which works.

Thank you jscher2000.

Maybe it's because I am in Europe.

FredMcD thank you for your time & effort. I have found a work around to get to the homepage.

Hi, in the future please take Comodo Ice Dragon to it's proper forum @ Comodo forums.comodo.com/index.php?board=281.0

Comodo is using Mozilla Firefox open source software to make their browser. All concerns and issue should be taken to them as they have added their own stuff to the code. Which Firefox Support knows nothing of.

Thank You

Firefox makes the source desktop Firefox available for people to download and build their own builds on Windows, Mac OSX, and Linux. However if you plan to distribute these third-party builds (and not just for yourself) then you cannot use the Firefox name and icons.

Comodo Ice Dragon is a third-party build of Firefox.

The 'educated guesses' below are incorrect. I use Comodo Ice Dragon 60.0.2.10 & Windows 7, not Firefox 59.0 or Windows 10.

If you used the build of Comodo Ice Dragon you have then it is configured to send useragent as Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0 as you can see in your More Systems Details in right of your first post in thread.

NT 10.0 is Windows 10.

It is possible that you have enabled resist fingerprinting.

You can check this pref on the about:config page to see if resist fingerprinting is enabled and if this pref is user set (bold) reset to false via the right-click context menu.

• privacy.resistFingerprinting = false
