What browser works best with self-signed certificates

[Night0wl]

I have recently started being blocked from sites, using self-signed SSL certificates, in Firefox with no workaround.

What is a fast, reliable, compatible and secure (and preferably customizable) alternative that works on all the sites?

Have you tried this addon?

Unfortunately it still refuses to let me in. It's like Firefox has started ignoring the security exceptions entirely. I have tried the same thing that plugin does manually and even tried clearing every stored certificate and exception. It started with just BCG, but now it's FTN also all of a sudden.

I have already spent literately hours on trying to find a fix for this and now I have come to the point, where I just want to drop Firefox entirely and find something else.

PTN uses self-signed certificate and I can access the site by clicking "I understand the risks" button just as before on latest firefox.

We are going to get rid of ours, it will be a couple of weeks though.

I get in fine with chrome, just click the proceed anyway button twice.

I've just managed to get into BCG using IE (much as I hate to use it). There is a suggestion on BCG forums that you should be able to get on using Firefox if you install and use the IE tab. Might be worth a try.

IE tab also works with Chrome.

I'm not a member of PTN, so can't compare. This issue isn't affecting all self-signed certificates as quite a few of the sites I use have these. So far only BCG and FTN are affected. Until 2-3 days ago it was only BCG.

Using IE-Tab worked for both sites. Thanks a lot for saving me the trouble of switching.

An utterly boring proposition with an utterly boring resolution makes me wonder why people without a sense of humor still have confidence in getting help here.
