I get the same thing with IE3 on the PC. I've been told that in order to
update the Verisign certs in IE, you *must* upgrade to IE4. This seems
idiotic.

There's some interesting info on this subject on the support site for my
web host. See:

http://support.pair.com/notices/sslrootcerts.html

"If the user clicks the "Continue" button, the transaction can proceed
normally and will be fully protected by encryption. However, such a
warning is likely to confuse some users, possibly even leading them to
believe that there is a security problem."

See also Verisign's info page:

I don't know how this affects Voyager exactly, but it's a headache which
is not isolated to Amiga users, at least!
