I don't think we can leave your patch out as I like it, but as long it  
works as before. When I went to www.providianonline.com and  
www.hotmail.com, and it complained about can't trust CA. I don't get that  
before and I did tried 'rm -rf ~/.mozilla'. Is there anything else that I  
should do?

% pkg_info | grep nss
nss-3.10

% pkg_info | grep nspr
nspr-4.6

% pkg_info | grep firefox
firefox-1.0.6_2,1

I will leave them alone unless marcus and ahze want to keep the major  
library. The package doesn't work as I thought have broke my legs. In  
future, please control yourself. ;-)
