it pop's up, whenever you are using a different name to access the site:
www.puredata.info is not the same as puredata.info nor www.puredata.org
nor puredata.org ... (the list is almost infinite).

in my prior answer (which went to pdweb at iem.at) i stated, that the
"real" name of the site is 'puredata.info' and NOT 'puredata.org' and
NOT AT ALL 'www.puredata.org'.
it seems like the primary name of the certificate is really
'puredata.org', i am sorry for the confusion.

you can install the root-certificate that was used to sign the
puredata.org-cert from http://iem.at/services/certs/IEMroot.crt
(note: all these certificates are self-signed).

to re-iterate, you(!) have to ensure that you are using the correct
host-name, and this does NOT include www.puredata.org nor
IOhannes.puredata.info.
