THANKS John Doe, ( per your instruction after adding 'www', download now
succeeds :) i should have thought about it earlier :( )

How to manually add new root cert inside cert8.db or cert9.db file ? (
in /etc/pki/nssdb folder )

and How to manually add new root cert inside ca-bundle.trust.crt or
ca-bundle.crt file ? ( in /etc/pki/tls/certs folder )
