Thanks for replying.

no. I've got quite an old firefox - v 45. If firefox needs updating, then 
the problem is not the certificates in the OS, but something in firefox. 
Does firefox have certificates in it? I couldn't find any pem files in the 
firefox directories.

I'm loathe to update firefox, as you can't revert if you don't like it. 
The gui is less and less usable with every update. Firefox changes the 
format of files in directories (I think ~/.mozilla). I need to know which 
ones to back up in case I need to revert.

Thanks

Joe
