hello,
i have downloaded the m14 build with crypto and psm modules. i have
tried a few sites and encountered a few problems.
1st: is it possible that the browser doesn't encrypt at all when i
access a site which doesn't support 128 bit encryption. AND DOESN'T EVEN
TELL ME??? (happened on www.buecher.de when i clicked the ssl-account
info)
2nd: i tried www.thawte.com. i have certs there and just tried to view
the status site. i gave the login info and the browser showed the next
page but didn't stop downloading (judging from the mozilla logo..). when
i then went on to see the next site (also supposed to be secure) i was
asked for the login info again and the browser behaved the same way.
through all this the security icon didn't show that i was on a secure
site...
maybe someone who knows more about this than me can double-check this
and make a bug report... (sorry but i'm just a dumbo surfer...)
regards,
    frank.

PS: i'm using win98 and a proxy
