This is even more annoying with Chrome as it doesn't allow to remember the security exception for this site.
This can only be fixed on the server side by buying a cert from a "trusted" authority (i.e. one who's authority certificate is distributed with most browsers). Boost's cert was generated by Indiana University. They have a FAQ on what causes these errors. http://www.cs.indiana.edu/Facilities/FAQ/WWW/securityerror.html To fix it properly, install their authority certificate from http://www.cs.indiana.edu/Facilities/FAQ/Security/CA.html - Daniel
