SSL Error on the Trinity web site

Just a heads-up.

Clicking "Nightly Builds" on the Trinity web site menu bar results in an SSL 
Error:

"The site's security certificate is not trusted!

You attempted to reach quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net, but the server 
presented a certificate issued by an entity that is not trusted by your 
computer's operating system. This may mean that the server has generated its 
own security credentials, which Chromium cannot rely on for identity 
information, or an attacker may be trying to intercept your communications. 
You should not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before 
for this site."

It's invoked because https is specified for access to the nightly builds; is 
this necessary?

Also, I can't help thinking that an unqualified certificate is worse than 
useless, so why does it even exist?
