The website opens fine in FireFox. In Chrome I get an error saying it is not secure, but I can open it anyway.

To the best of my knowledge, Calibre, and therefore FanFicFare, use at least part of the Windows OS SSL support. That's why the cert update via Internet Explorer work-around works.
So your problem almost certain comes AO3 requiring newer SSL(TLS) versions instead of older versions with known issues and Windows7 isn't getting those updates anymore.
You can try setting
use_ssl_unverified_context:true personal.ini, but I don't guarantee it will work. That code was for an SSL problem on a different site 5 years ago.
And if you do use that setting, you
will be compromising your SSL security in Calibre to some degree. It's complicated to predict exactly how much.
