Works for me (tested with a clean cert8.db file). Also SSL Checker (<http://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html>) doesn't complain about a missing certificate chain (the most common error).

Are you sure that you haven't made changes in your certificate database (cert8.db in your profile) ? You can verify that by removing the file out of your profile, it will be regenerated (and you can place the old one back later if you wish). Or you can test in a complete new profile, see <http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles>.

Works for me with clean profile.

I've definitely done changes to my certificate database -- adding certificates; I certainly did not remove any. Godaddy sites used to work and only stopped with Firefox 9 update.

openSUSE 12.1, running Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:13.0a1) Gecko/20120215 Firefox/13.0a1, the sites work fine to me; i guess the reporter should close the bug if this is not happening anymore.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:14.0) Gecko/20120411 Firefox/14.0a1
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0

the two sites also work for me. Closing then based on comments 2 and 3. Please re-open if this occurs again.
