Amusingly, I'm getting this failure on "verisign.com" on Windows 7 with Python 2.7.9: "HTTP error - [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:581)..)" The current Verisign root cert (Class 3 public) is, indeed, not in the Windows 7 cert store. Verisign has a newer root cert. That error message ought to be improved. Tell the user which cert was rejected. "python.org", with a DigiCert certificate, works fine. I'm going to use the Mozilla certificate store explicitly.
