In the meantime I solved the problems.....the only way it working out is to remove (rename) personal info in Firefox (documents and settings) and do a comple reinstall. (you can use the Firefox addons (or even Mozilla backup tool) for your bookmarks & passw file to reinstall do this before you remove your old Firefox version, you need those files for import again.

I make those changes but it not seems to work, get stil:

error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain

Any Idea to solve this?

It is real bad that it is not standaard in this version that you can choose to exept this SSL Cert. or not like it is in IE7

Am getting a similar problem:

Secure Connection Failed

www.amazon.co.uk uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate expired on 12/02/2008 23:59.

(Error code: sec_error_expired_certificate)

Not just on amazon, but on a ton of sites e.g. humyo.com, 123-reg.co.uk. Should I have to make exceptions for 50% of the sites I visit? Running Windows Xp and had no probs with FF2. Hope you can help as with a web browser, I'd like to be able to browse the web.
Thanks

Try following
Locate firefox.js
For portable version look at ..\FirefoxPortable\App\firefox\defaults\pref
Find section
// Controls behavior of the "Add Exception" dialog launched from SSL error pages

change

pref("browser.ssl_override_behavior", 1)

to

pref("browser.ssl_override_behavior", 2)

Now when visiting "incorrect" SSL site you should get clickable message at the bottom of warning window

Or you can add an exception...

Click on it and you can add this SSL certificate to FF3
