Likely a dupe of Bug 286410?

According to the comments to that Bug, the cause was a misconfigured
webserver, which i doubt is the problem here.
But i may be wrong.

The cert chain looks wrong in the cert viewer, too. Also Blizzard can make
failures when configuring servers ;).

So the problem is that the certificate chain isn't sent. If you first visit a
site with a valid cert chain (for example https://one.jabwebservers.co.uk:8443)
for this type of cert (SSL123), you don't see the warning when visiting the URL.

So i feel sorry to have spammed bugzilla :(

btw. with "which i doubt is the problem here", 
i didn't mean that Blizz doesn't make mistakes.
It was a doubt due to lack of information ;)

Ok, tried to write a mail to [e-mail], but their webserver seems
down since a few weeks now (or they aren't interested in mail at all?). Then I
wrote a mail to support, but they apparently didn't understand what i wanted
(heh), well i replied again that they didnt understand my problem correctly.
Maybe you have better access to the WoW people who could fix those bugs over the
WoW Forums (i dont have a account there)?
