You probably just need to install these certificates:

Only after clearing it with your IT department. Whilst CACert may well be less risky than some of the more obscure ones trusted by Windows, more security conscious IT departments may well disable many of the default Windows ones.


I thought there was a note to this effect on the website but I'm not
finding that now.

Telling people to reduce security without explaining the security implications is a bad idea. Most end users will go for convenience, rather than make a proper, informed, decision. (Every new root certificate increases the number of sites you trust and therefore reduces your security.)
