How to FIX Error code: sec_error_revoked_certificate

NOW Firefox is behaving!  It was the last damn straw when I could no longer get into Yahoo Mail.

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to us-mg6.mail.yahoo.com. The OCSP response contains out-of-date information. (Error code: sec_error_ocsp_old_response) The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

Screw this shit!  I fixed it!  Give me a cookie or trophy or something!



My screen is different, but the same principle applies.

So....

For newer versions of Firefox, I did this...
