Firefox gives me this
| Quote: | This Connection is Untrusted
You have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.google.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. |
Is this some temporary screwup with their security credentials or is it on my end ?
Tried changing it to http but I get redirected to https

Does it happen with other google domains (.com and such)?
Try http://www.google.com/ncr and it won't do the location-based redirecting.

Still happens with firefox, not with IE though. IE goes to http.
If I go to https://www.google.com/ with IE I still get the certification warning.
I mean, I know I can add an exception, but why the hell did this start happening. Is the https connection working for you ?
EDIT: Hmm... it's because I'm logged in through FF, but not through IE.

EDIT: Yeah, deleted my google cookies and now I'm logged out so it doesn't use a secure connection. But WHY THE FUCK doesn't their certificate work ?

Yup it defaults to the secure https and no problems whatsoever. Using FF 16.0.2.

It's something on my end, windows update doesn't work and no certificates work. I will check this out.

I fixed it by sersvr32 wintrust.dll and another dll and manually running an update for root certificates, sacrificing a gay goat and some other stuff I don't even remember.
Well, that was a shitty waste of my time, thanks Microsoft.

What OS are you running, root certs really shouldn't be an issue unless you're still running Windows SP0/1 :\
