Is there any way to get SSL error messages in Firefox?

https://irc.verylegit.link/0x8c*download()194mobiads(windows... is supposed to redirect to Facebook, and it does if you use HTTP. However, over HTTPS Firefox just gives me a very generic "Secure Connection Failed" message. (Chrome is rather more helpful, giving me "ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED".)

Click the (i) icon to the left of the URL in the address bar, the the `>` button, then “More information” at the bottom. The technical details say the connection is not encrypted.
