- Add Exception – Some of the websites may use a certificate that has not been issued by a trusted CA. If you visit those websites, Comodo Ice Dragon will display a warning:
-
If you trust the site, click 'Advanced' > 'Add Exception' and proceed with adding this site as an exception.
The 'Add Exceptions' interface allows you to add such trusted websites in advance, to be exempted from the security check.
-
Click 'Add Exception' in the 'Servers' tab of the 'Certificate Manager' dialog to add a website manually.
-
Type the url of the site to be exempted from the security check and click 'Get Certificate'.
The browser fetches the certificate, checks for its legitimacy and displays its status.
-
If you trust the site, click 'Confirm Security Exception'.
The website will be added to the exceptions and transactions through it will be allowed by the website even if the certificate is not trusted.
