Hi, I'm trying to figure out (for testing purposes only -- I need to verify a certificate on a POP3 server) if there's a way to override Firefox 3's internal port blocking.
The port in question is 995, which is POP3/secure. Of course, I'd very much like to understand why this happens: "Port Restricted for Security Reasons This address uses a network port which is normally used for purposes other than Web browsing. Firefox has canceled the request for your protection. The requested address specified a port (e.g. "mozilla.org:80" for port 80 on mozilla.org) normally used for purposes other than Web browsing. The browser has canceled the request for your protection and security." with a "Try Again" button. Note that I have safebrowsing DISABLED. I cannot find any setting to allow me to connect to arbitrary ports and override Firefox's well-meaning but thoroughly infuriating attempts to keep me safe in the light of something that I know is a technical misuse. -Kyle H _______________________________________________ dev-security mailing list dev-security@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security
