I'm running Netscape 6 2001083003 on win2000.  When accessing an SSL site where
it's SSL server cert is unrecognized by the browser, I could see the N icon
spins a few seconds to a stop and nothing happens.

I was expecting it to pop up a box and ask me if I want to trust this site
temporarily or permanently, etc.  But no, it didn't happen.
SSL url (CMS)I tried:
https://cfu:443
works for me on build ID 2001090303

Here is one sure way to reproduce the problem.  I just created a ca instance at
https://cfu:1029, where it's SSL server cert has been revoked.  Here is what you do:
1. go to http://cfu and retrieve the ca cert, then the crl
2. restart your browser (just precautionary work)
3. visit https://cfu:1029, and you should see that you're going nowhere, and no
error message.
4. now try it with your ie browser and you should see that you being asked
whether you still want to trust the cert.
