Mike, Bingo
The 3 certificates that have an expired date is the issue confronting you now. If we were dealing with MS we could inset the CD do an update and there is a option their to re-validate all root certificates - but this is Linux - don't know why I told you that.
At this state I would be tempted to ask you to uninstall FF and then re-install it from your CD's, however before we do that can you tell me how many years ago was the installation performed - that will give me a clue if the installation date === issue date on the expired certificates then an uninstall and reinstall will give you back the same certificates but with a new validity period.
I ran apt- install --reinstall mozilla the other day
I can help you back them up and re-install them if the above is correct.
Perhaps it is time to consider a total software version upgrade - if so and you need you special certificates they will need to be backed up.
I have a new machine sitting beside me now. I was debating moving the existing drive over, or just trying to copy /home
Let me know how you go
