 Recently discovered I couldn't access the website malwarebytes.org.  After
 assuming the worst and running virus and spyware tests, but coming up
 empty, I turned towards my add-ons and the process of elimination revealed
 the problem to be with HTTPS Everywhere.

 This is the error message I receive when HTTPS is enabled:

 Unable to connect
           Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at
 malwarebytes.org.
   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a
 few
     moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
     connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make
 sure
     that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

 In addition, I'd mention that it appears to block the site whether the
 rule is engaged or not.

 Just a heads up.
