This indicates that a secure HTTP connection could not be established
with the Web server.  There are two things you might try.

1.  Using a WhoIs Web site or application, locate a contact E-mail
address for the domain, best if a technical administrator.  Send an
E-mail with a diplomatic complaint, including the error message.  This
is the most safe way to handle the problem.

2.  Disable OCSP checking.  On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit >
Preferences].  On the left side of the Preferences window, select
[Privacy & Security > Certificates].  On the Certificates pane, uncheck
the 2nd checkbox under OCSP.  This is NOT really a safe way to handle
the problem.  If you are really sure you are requesting the real Web
site, however, this is the most quick way to handle it.
