Firefox does not load intermediate CA certs from the network.  It - and pretty 
much all other browsers, as far as I know - will sometimes magically cache 
intermediary certificates.  So if you visit the site in a browser that happens 
to have had the right intermediate CA certificate cached (probably because you 
visited another StartSSL free site, in twistedmatrix.com's case) then you will 
get no warning.  This is why most people don't actually see a warning on the 
site :-).

But we'll have this problem fixed For Real soon!
