Sorry I am a newbie and when I try to go to:

I get the following error:

This Connection is Untrusted

      You have asked Firefox to connect

securely to lists.geany.org, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

      What Should I Do?

        If you usually connect to

this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continu

    lists.geany.org uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.

(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

      If you understand what's going on, you

can tell Firefox to start trusting this site's identification. Even if you trust the site, this error could mean that someone is tampering with your connection. Don't add an exception unless you know there's a good reason why this site doesn't use trusted identification.

Hi Chris,

Unfortunately this is an argument between firefox and the certificate provider such that firefox is unwilling to include the particular certificate provider. Other browsers such as chrome or even IE (I understand, I haven't tried myself) do include the certificate provider.

The best suggestion is to use another browser or install the certificate providers certificate yourself.

Cheers Lex

Is it safe for me to proceed?
