I have the same DigiNotar certificates coming up every time that I relaunch my browser. I manually go in and untrust the DigiNotar Services 1024 CA which by default every time is trusted. I am using the most current version 22.

This issue means many pages like Google will give me a trust or do not trust the certificate error. As soon as I manually untrust this entry I can refresh and load the pages.

Do not trust this certificate should be selected.

Rename the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.

If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.

Also remove a possible cert_override.txt file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
