Is anyone else getting a security warning when they try to login to Amazon.com Associates area?

It doesn't happen every time, but every other day or so, when I try to visit the login page, I get an error (in Firefox) that says:

"Website certified by an unknown authority"

and the error dialog suggests that there is either a server problem, or someone is trying to pretend to be the site I intend to visit.

Am I doing something wrong, or is Amazon.com doing something wrong? I never get this error from Amazon.co.uk Associates.

No one else is seeing this behaviour?

I saw it a long time ago, but haven't for quite awhile. If you haven't asked about it on the Associates Central forum, that would be the place to go. There might already be some talking going on there if others are having the same problem. Yeah, that means you'd have to log on. But if you type the address into your browser yourself (instead of following a link from somewhere else), it should be safe enough to go to the forum.
