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.
