PSM will crash if FIPS-mode (on the Advanced tab of the Personal Security
Manager) is enabled and then disabled.

To reproduce:
1) Go to the Modules section on the Advanced tab of the Personal Security
Manager dialog.
2) Click on the Enable button next to the "Enable FIPS-mode" text. The button
should now say Disable and the text say "Disable FIPS-mode".
3) Close the Personal Security Manager dialog.
4) psm.exe will crash in a couple of minutes.  Unfortunately since it is psm
crashing and not Mozilla, no Talkback incident is created.

In addition, if after step 2, but before psm.exe crashes, you click on the
Disable button, the button disapears and is replaced by the text: "Not
Implemented. The requested feature has not been implemented, or is not
functioning properly."

Tested with Mozilla 122805 on NT4.
Confirmed in the 12/31 commercial trunk WinNT build.

using 2001011804 win95 mtrunk.  

psm crashes upon first browser action after closing psm after enabling fips
mode.  rectifying the crash then prevents psm from loading subsequently, until
the browser is restarted.  after a browser restart following this crash, loading
psm shows that fips is no longer enabled.

suggest keyword crash.  if there's a such thing as a psm blocker, this'd be it.
