That server doesn't send the "StartCom Class 2 Primary Intermediate Server CA" intermediate certificate.

See http://www.networking4all.com/en/support/tools/site+check/

You can save the text with the pink background to a text file and save it as StartCom.cer and import that file in the certificate manager.
