Mozilla Crypto Released for Windows, Linux!
The first crypto-enabled builds of Mozilla have come online. Currently
there are Windows and Linux builds available - a Mac version will be
available soon. Enabled in these initial builds are SSL, the Security
Advisor, and IMAPS. Signed mail and encrypted mail are not yet
implemented.
To try out the PSM (Personal Security Manager), first you need to grab
a special version of M14. There are Talkback and no-Talkback versions
available for Windows, and Talkback and no-Talkback versions available
for Linux. After you have installed this build, run Mozilla and browse
to the PSM page at iPlanet. You can get details on the release, as
well as any special instructions you may need (and instructions for
Linux if you are building the M14 build from scratch). Scroll down the
page, and you will see buttons to install the PSM version for your
system. Clicking the button will start up the XPI installation
routine, and the PSM will be downloaded and installed. After
installation, close Mozilla and reopen to use the PSM. You should be
able to visit secure websites now, and view the Security Advisor
(available from the Tasks menu).
The source code for the PSM has not yet been released. We will let
you know when it is.
