ok.. I don't know what component to file this under. It seems to me, that it
should be PSM 8after careful study of a hundred pages) but that is not in the
droplist anymore.
So: I have an outdated certificate, and want to delete it, so that I can
establish a https session again, but nothing happens. I use r1.1 German. I have
to start up r1.0 (which happens to be english) and there I can delete the very
same certificate without problem. Note: there is no error message, it just
doesn't go away.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to Bearbeiten
2.Einstellungen
3.Privatspäre & Sicherheit
4.Zertifikate
5. Zertifikate verwalten
6.Websites
7.chosse any certificate accepted prevously
8.Löschen
9. Ok
10. nothing happens

Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
the certificate should have been removed

Thank you for attempting to find the correct component - you tried a lot harder
than most. PSM is considered a separate "product" in Bugzilla, and you'll find
it in the Product drop-down list. I'm reassigning this bug there now.

What tab is showing in the Certificate Manager when you are trying to delete a 
cert? Do you have FIPS enabled?
If this is a personal cert, a workaround is Edit>Prefs>Privacy>Master 
Passwords>Reset master password.

I was trying to delete a website certificate
I never usede FIPS, so it is set at the default value, whatever that is.
I never user a master password, so I don't understand how this could solve my 
problem. My workaround was to use Mozilla 1.0, where it works without problem, 
on the same profile. Fortunately one can use 1.1 and 1.0 alternatingly.
