Although this isn't really a bug report, "how to report bugs effectively": http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html It might be worth trying an Abrowser session in safe mode: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode If that doesn't help, try using a new profile, and report back: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Opening_a_new_instance_of_your_Mozilla_application_with_another_profile See if you can find something reproducible, like "I visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisquel and it redirects me to "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisquel every time." Please note that any HTTPS website can redirect you back to HTTP, or include a link to the HTTP version of their website. You could use an addon like HttpFox to check the headers that are being sent, to get more of an idea of what's happening. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/httpfox/ Also, are you using your own computer? Or have you installed any certificates in your web browser? These may sound like a dumb questions, but another university I go to just started doing a TLS MITM attack with forged certificates. (I am in the process of complaining about this). Apparently some schools/universities/workplaces encourage their network users to install their own root certificate so they can spy on what their doing over TLS, or automatically redirect them to HTTP plaintext.
