On July 2, Firefox updated to version 61on one household PC, and immediately a particular financial company site could no longer recognize that computer. Our other PC that was still on Firefox 60 still could be recognized on that financial company's website. However on July 3, the other PC in the house updated to 61, and immediately that second PC also could no longer be recognized by this same financial site. Previously on 60, Firefox did not block computer recognition by this site on either household PC. So what is in version 61 that is causing this problem of not recognizing a computer so as to enable signing in?

Hi, There is security software like Avast/AVG, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connections and send their own certificate. If you are running any of the above software please check their community forum for a work around to apply settings.

Both the PCs that were not recognized by the financial site as soon as 61 was installed on different days are running only Windows Defender and, not in real time, Malwarebytes. I will update the flashplayer as you suggest.
