Hi All,
I want to check if there is already an instance of firefox
in running with the same url, if yes, selenium should take control of
that instance .
I wanna do it dot net(c#).

Just my 2cents worth:

The fundamental problem is that firefox does not trust the certificate
for the https site u are testing automatically. When manually
accessing the site, u have probably somehow indicated that u trust the
site, whereas when using selenium, since it is using a different
firefox profile, ur manual trusting of the site does not take effect
in this other profile.

Maybe if u google round for "selenium firefox trusted certificate
error", u may get some meaningful workaround for this issue ?

Cheers
