Getting sec_error_untrusted_issuer error. Even after remove cert8.db
Trying to open the site https://fogaiba.atlassian.net I get the sec_error_untrusted_issuer and I cannot add exceptions.
I have read a lot about it and I have already deleted cert8.db file.
I use Windows XP and Firefox 18.
Any ideas? With Google Chrome I can enter the site after accepting the exception.

by iamjayakumarsThe Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
