I get a certificate error using firefox, I have tried deleting cert8.db, and resetting Firefox. I don't have any errors using IE 10. What can I do?

I used a link in an email to check the status of a repair from Acer and received the error "customercare.acer.com uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.
(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)". I tried going directly to the Acer website, and went to support, then to check case status. I received the same error. I reactivated IE 10 on my OS and had no problems with certificate errors. I use McAfee Antivirus suite from ATT Uverse, but the troubleshooting did not indicate any settings for that, only ESET and Bitdefender.

Could you take a look at the certificate details?
If you click "I understand the risks" and "Add Exception", then the "View" button, does it look at all like the attached? I suggest using a new window to compare because when the certificate viewer is open, you cannot switch tabs in the same window.
You can cancel the viewer after checking, you may not want to create an exception until getting further comments.
