    I use Firefox 3 which has a new feature to remember certificate exceptions. The strange part is, for my servers I get the warning when attempting to login via whm or cpanel and I always add the exception *permanently* like this:

    https://ipaddress:2087 (example)

    I still get the prompt later on the day on a new firefox session. Not sure why. Its very annoying. Basically, it never remembers the exceptions I've added permanently.

    I confirmed this by going to options > advance > encryption tab > view certificates section. They were all missing.

    The warning itself....

    Why not login via your.server.com:2087 and try that route instead? That's the domain the cert is for, correct?

    Just unmark the Authenticated Sessions in the clear private data.

    The way you have configured FF now is that everytime you close FF it will clear your data.
