I don't think this is a site issue. It is more an issue of which applications are allowed to update the CA store. MS might be blocking all 3rd party applications, or just ones that don't have appropriate permissions. The CA's are the certificates used to validate site certificates. A little extra care with them is reasonable. I've never bother to look as I don't find opening IE once a year to much of a pain.

@Rellwood: Please follow the instructions I gave. They weren't idle. They were the actions that solved this type of problem on Windows machines every other time they have been reported.
