Anyone know how to update the root certificates for Firefox 2.0 ?

Basically, I think that my root certificates (and probably yours too -
if you use Firefox 2.0.0.20) need to be updated.

Anyone know how to do this?

This might (or it does) have something to do with the file nssckbi.dll.

Maybe I can replace my existing version of that file with a more recent
version - even if it's from a newer version of filefox...

FWIW: I did test some of the newer versions of Firefox on Win98 with
kernel-X

Thought they installed OK,
they functioned too poorly to be of any use

Thanks, that saved me some time and trouble. I'd intended to look at that in
case OperaUSB drove me away as Firefox had, and I'd wanted to return.
I think I'll get a lot of mileage out of OperaUSB v10.3 yet.

I've never used OperaUSB but it looks like a great idea!

I was put off Opera every time for years until I saw one on a Windows Mobile
2003 machine that worked well on it. Once I knew there were situations where
it did work, I was ready to see others. Even in the USB-variant, not all is
well with all versions, but this one (this time corectly identified as
v10.53, not 10.3) is great, because although like any browser that does a
lot, it's complex to the point of annoying, but it does keep it all in one
place which makes it manageable. That was it's USB 'selling point' but I just
like the fact that it keeps itself to itself whereever I put it. That, and
the fact that I don't have to use KernelEx (which may be great, I just never
needed to explore it so I put it off).

I originally did not care for Opera either but it's pretty good now.

Side note: Not sure why I still hang out here on Win98...
I am now a Linux user and only rarely work on Win98 machines any more...
but I still have a few that may be collectors items.
