Cryptography The new Firefox 3 browser is approaching fast its final release to the public and millions of fans will download the new product from Mozilla this month. For me this is a very exciting event and a great opportunity to show you which changes and improvements will effect us, specially in relation to SSL secured web site. What do you think about the changes to Firfox's SSL features? Are they an improvement over the older Firefox versions? I would be interesting in what users are think about Firefox 3 bata security features.

I don't like how I have to approve it, before it will allow me to visit a site with a self-signed certificate. 
 
It may be a security feature, but it annoys me.

Firefox SSL BugWritten by Mr. Jones on 2008-08-20 18:41:53
I'm very frustrated with this Firefox 3 data connection interrupted bug on SSL sites. Does anyone have a fix for this? As much as I hate to say it IE is now my default browser again because of this ridiculous security 'enhancement' that you cant allow any exceptions too. I'd appreciate any tips on fixing this so I can install Firefox again, thanks!
