I can connect to https://handbrake.fr/appcast.i386.xml

with chrome. It tells me he is using a startcom class 2 certificate,
128 bit encryption, TLS 1.0, RC4_128, SHA1, RSA

CN = StartCom Class 2 Primary Intermediate Server CA
OU = Secure Digital Certificate Signing
O = StartCom Ltd.
C = IL

I went to http://www.startssl.com/certs and downloaded what I believed
to be the corresponding root cert: sub.class2.server.ca.crt

I imported it into .keystore.


But Java still said 
HandBrake response -1 no connect : javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException
: sun.security.validator
.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed:
sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to
find valid certification path to requested target from
https://handbrake.fr/appcast.i386.xml 

What is the magic spell to let me read that page?

Site after site is going to HTTPS. I don't know why. The information
is public. It defeats caching.
