Interesting... in linux 3.0.5 I only get: ==== www.us.army.mil uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer) ==== When going to: https://www.us.army.mil/suite/login/welcome.html Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121621 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) I wonder if it's a Ubuntu distro version thing... I'll load up a standard Fx and see if it is any different. BTW: I did find where to get the certs for those .mil sites; unfortunately in order to get them I had to use Opera or SM 1.1.14/15pre as I couldn't get to them via SM 2.0a3pre or Fx: https://crl.gds.disa.mil/ > > Hopefully, SeaMonkey 2 will handle it better than Fx 3 does.
