Ever since my most recent update in Firefox 4.0.1, I am no longer able to "add exception" for government websites I normally visit. The "Untrusted Connection" screen appears as it has many times in the past and when I try to click "add exception" nothing happens. This happens on any website with an "Untrusted Connection".

If you install the DoD CA 2 root certificate and possibly the DOD CA-17 intermediate certificate then you do not need to add an exception.
