Troubleshooting note for Firefox users:

The first time you attempt to log in to our system, you may get an error message that says "Secure connection failed." To resolve this error:

1. Click on the link at the end of the “Secure Connection Failed” page that says “Or you can add an exception...”

2. Click on the button “Add exception” to confirm your choice.  This should open a new pop-up window.

3. Click on “Get Certificate” at the top of the pop-up window, and then “Confirm Security Exception” at the bottom of the window.  Make sure that you leave the box “Permanently store this exception” checked.  That way, you’ll only have to go through this procedure once.
