So either something is wrong with your SSL connection, like a man-in-the-middle attack, or you don't have the appropriate certificates to compare to.
Calibre, and therefore FFDL, use your OS's base certificate store. So if you're getting certificate verify failed errors, it's likely that your OS hasn't been updated in a while and doesn't have the correct certs.
If your OS is already up to date, I don't know of anything else I could do to help you.

Hey Jklly12 did this work for you? I updated my windows os but it didn't make any difference. I still get this error for fictionpad downloads. Does anyone know how I can manually update the certificate myself or how to bypass it?
