After updating to FireFox 5 beta 3 no version of firefox will correctly load any webpage that is secured by a SSL certificate. When viewing sites such as PayPal, eBay, even the addons page for firefox I get a warning saying the page can not be verified and that the certificate is not trusted.

I've got Firefox 5 running on Vista Home and while trying to connect to a SSL secured website running on a network device it won't let me. I type in the username and password, and press 'login' but rather than presenting me with a 'incorrect login' screen, it just refreshes and brings me back to the login screen as though I never even tried to login in the first place.
