ok, paypal.com 302s to www.paypal.com


# curl -I https://paypal.com
HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 161
Connection: keep-alive
Location: https://www.paypal.com/
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains

So firefox must be checking the cert first before the redirect.

But other browsers may be processing the 302 THEN checking and seeing 
the valid www.paypal.com
