    Default Axxess DSL can be trusted?

    When i try sign up it is says:

    This Connection is Untrusted

    You have asked Firefox to connect
    securely to rcp.adsl.co.za, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.

    Normally, when you try to connect securely,
    sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
    going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

    Can this site be trusted? Could be good, but why no identification? That's what makes me wonder.

    Yeah that often happens. Sometimes with G-Connect aswell. Its just the websites dont have certificates or something. Firefox thinks its not trustworthy then.

    Weird that such a large so called company does not have a certificate.

    Heh, are you putting the "www" in front of the url? Its use is somewhat deprecated in most browsers these days, but Firefox turns up authentication errors when connecting to secure sites if you haven't put it in.

    Try prefixing shttp:// infront of the URL, that will force the browser to use a secure connection if available
