If I understood you correctly I think the problem sounds like its
related to the cert itself and you're probably using a self-signed cert.

On Netscape you can accept the dummy cert and it won't prompt you again
until the cert expires, on IE its the same thing but its a little bit
more complicated.

A quick search on the Internet yielded this:
http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~help/cert/cert-ie.html

and that might help you. Just port over your cert using certutil.exe (on
my system its in c:\win2000\system32\dllcache\) 

The other alternative albeit a more costly one is to get a real
certificate and you won't have this problem.

Hope that helps.
