Default Re: HTTPS web site "cannot display the webpage"

If its Smart Defense blocking you, there should be an entry in SmartTracker in the relevant section.

Doesn't sound like an SD issue though - what is the actual reason code behind the "cannot display the webpage" error you get (normally some more detailed info available)

Things to check:
- Is your DNS server responding to the host name correctly
- Are you using a proxy server - and if so, check the logs (or try bypassing it)
- If you have an openssl installation somewhere try:

openssl s_client -connect servername:443 -showcerts

This will verify the communications for you.

(As an aside Firefox 3.0.5 is quite old - 3.0.10 has been out for a while, and as reliable as any FF3 installations can be)
