Firefox 3.6.6 does not start after upgra
Firefox has had some security problems lately and some days ago 3.6.6 was pushed out.
For many of us, this breaks firefox: it will not start up anymore. After some digging I found out that moving away the file ~/.mozilla/firefox/PROFILENAME/secmod.db solves the problem.
Thought I should scribble it down in case you have the same problem... and what fun is a blog post without a picture? :-)

G: Japp, såg att det fanns lite referenser till BankID-grejjen i den filen... tur att man inte använder det så ofta :-)

I wrote a two-line script that starts the browser "firefox" and the second line removes the dreaded file. The script is referred to by the various places where the browser is called from. Apparently, the file is not vital for the browser to start. I wonder what it contains. Anybody know?

JosefL: Det räcker nog om du tar bort filen en gång, behövs inget skript!

JosefL: Aha, ja du kan till exempel göra så att kommandoraden för din firefoxikon är:
rm ~/.mozilla/firefox/PROFIL-NAMN/secmod.db && firefox
...så kommer filen raderas varje gång du klickar på ikonen, så kommer firefox startas sen.
