Here is a problem for your help:
      Now I have a secure HTTPD server which support SSL,But I havn't a 
certificate signed by a CA hardcoded in Netscape Navigator 2.01(I am using 
version 2.01).When I tried  to communciate with this secure server Navigator 
pop up a dialog box titled "Netsape -[New Site Certificate]",in this dialog 
box Netscape tell me it does not recognize the signer of this certificate 
and ask me if I accept this certificate.But when I click on the "next>" 
button in this box a application error occured.Windows gived out the error 
like this:

                           Application Error
      NETSCAPE  caused a General Protection Fault in 
         module NETSCAPE.EXE at 0010:7B63


Then I changed server Navigators and tried it again,the results were same.I 
want to know what's wrong and how to add a CA's certificate to Netscape 
Navigator.


                       Thank you!
