I'm not 100% sure in what situations this dialog pops up.  Will this dialog
pop up if I try to connect to www.internetbank.com but the certificate is for
www.stealmymoney.com?  In that case it doesn't matter much if I trust
www.internetbank.com or not.


I think the other dialogs look great.  It may be nice to have someone
non-technical look at them though, and see how they'd react to the messages.
