You have asked SeaMonkey to connect securely to www.facebook.com but we
cannot confirm that your connection is secure.
Normally,when you try to connect securely, websites will present
trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place.
However, this website identity cant be verified.
Any tips would be appreciated. I use AVG for Internet security.
Either you have distrusted root SSL certificates or else your database
of certificates has become corrupted.
To start, go to your SeaMonkey menu bar and select [Edit > Preferences].
On the left side of your Preferences window, select [Preference >
Privacy & Security > Certificates]. On the Certificates pane, select
the Manage Certificates button. On the Certificates Manager window,
select the Authorities tab. Do you see a list of certification
authorities, under which their root certificates are listed indented?
If so, scroll down the list to Digicert. Select DigiCert High Assurance
EV Root CA (the certificate used by Facebook) and then the Edit Trust
button. You should see a checkmark for "This certificate can identify
websites". If there is no checkmark, terminate SeaMonkey, open the
folder containing your profile, delete file cert8.db, relaunch
SeaMonkey, and try Facebook again.
If you do not see a list of certification authorities and their root
certificates in the Certificates Manager window, then your database of
certificates is corrupted or missing. You need to import the database
file from a good SeaMonkey installation while SeaMonkey is not running.
In this case, I do not know the name of the file; but someone else
reading this thread should be able to provide it. If the file on your
PC already exists but is corrupted, I do not know if reinstalling
SeaMonkey will help.
I believe the file is: cert8.db
