Issue with SSL and Firefox 3 on Identoo.com solved

Until today, I used a SSL certificate from CAcert.org. They are free and do their job: protecting user input on some pages like login and the settings.

But with Firefox 3, a nasty screen was shown, because Firefox no longer (?) supported these certificates. Many users were distracted by this, although it never meant, that their input was not secure.

Anyway… as the certificate was about to run out this evening, I ordered and installed a new one from PSW / Thawte. Firefox 3 now no longer displays an error message when accessing those protected areas on Identoo.com.
