Hi everyone!

I have already posted here:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=947625&p=5025625
but though of posting here too, hoping that someone would help me out with this:

I have trouble getting addon updates,
when I get on tools -> addons,
I get the following error:

http://i36.tinypic.com/2hmdb2x.jpg

The problem is that the bank I work for lately,
takes over the site's certificate issuer and so,
I see the bank's name in every ssl site I visit as the certificate isser and I have to add each such site as an exception.

The strange thing is that I have added services.mozilla.org under the certificates,
but doesn't work:

What is going on?
How can I disable this very annoying feature of fx 3?

Please, somebody help me out,
I understand that my environment is somehow restricting,
but fx should be more flexible as well

I'm on a lan (use a proxy to connect to the internet) and I can't change connection strings etc,
no access to the bank's firewall of course

anivirus used is McAfee, which I can't control either,
it's controled by a server,
but even if I disable McAfee,
nothing happens,
so the problem should be the proxy
(should be very restricting or wrongly configured),
but is there sth I can do about that?

when I open my addons and press the find updates button,
this is the error I get on the error console
(after turning extensions.logging to true):

Datasource: Addon Update Ended: {0069127F-F91E-4A3A-829A-9CAB9D259E94}, status: 4
    ----------
    RDFItemUpdater::onXMLLoad: cert issuer is not built-in
    ----------
    Datasource: Addon Update Ended: [e-mail], status: 4
    ----------
    Datasource: Update Ended

I can't seem possible to find a workaround,
searching for and updating each addon,
one by one,
seems impossible!

Thanks in advance!
