It's only a problem with Facebook?

This could be caused by a "man in the middle." If you click the "Advanced" button on the error page to view more technical information, what code is shown there? They typically look like SEC_ERROR_SOME_PROBLEM.

If Firefox says there is a problem with the certificate, you can share it with forum volunteers by clicking the code, then copying the coded certificate from the panel that opens below that.
