Gives me this message: Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.

The file cert8.db in your profile folder may have become corrupted. Delete this file while the application (Firefox, SeaMonkey, etc) is closed.[1] To do this on Windows machines: 

   Close the application by choosing File -> Exit.
   Open your profile folder in Windows Explorer.
   Click on the file named cert8.db.
   Press delete.
   Restart the application. cert8.db will be recreated when you do so.
