 (I'm a web developer with many different apps on my localhost web server.  This message is preventing me from working on these sites in Firefox.  I don't have a problem with this protection, but let me know how I could turn it off.  The retry button is also unhelpful in this situation - when would retrying ever change the port number? - benjaminm)
+(A way to get around is to use the ssh port forwarding. For instance, I need to acess a site such as http://111.123.123.111:22 but firefox will block the connection. What I did is to open a ssh port forwarding, such as ssh -N localhost -L 8080:111.123.123.111:22, then type your password to establish the connection. While the connection is still opening, go to your browser and do https://localhost:8080. This time, firefox will get you to there cause you just blinded firefox by using 8080 instead of 22, but indeed, you go to port 22. - i3dmaster)
