Bug Description
Simplest to do a Google search. You'll get more hits with better explanations that I can give... I'm marking this as a security vulnerability because it seems the solution is to download the search and completely take out the certificate verification code. At least for me. Can't figure out how to install an older version.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
