The most common SSL error we see has to do with certs being out of date on Windows. Usually that can be fixed by visiting the site using the OS browser, MSIE or Edge.

There was a known OpenSSL bug for a while that may be related. There's (mostly) undocumented feature you can use to work around that bug, it may help you, too:

Code:
[www.fanfiction.net]
use_ssl_unverified_context:true
Hi Jimm,
I have a similar problem. Unfortunately, the work around you suggested did not help.
I tried downloading six stories from ff.net. Three were okay, three had an error. The error message is still the same, even after adding the code you suggested:

Spoiler:
Fehler
Time Immemorial
FawkesyLady
<urlopen error [Errno 10054] Eine vorhandene Verbindung wurde vom Remotehost geschlossen>
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12495244/1/
(the error translates to: an existing connection was closed by the remote host)
Fehler
A Failure to Communicate
Otter's Corner
''
(the error description is just the two '')
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12648418/1/
Fehler
They Didn't Know We Were Seeds
LucyLuna
<urlopen error EOF occurred in violation of protocol (_ssl.c:590)>
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12386916/1/


Edit: I just saw that one of the stories I did download successfully today returned an error yesterday. I'm not sure if that helps.
