1. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences]. 2. On the Preferences window, select [Privacy & Security > Certificates]. 3. On the Certificates pane, select the Manage Certificates button. 4. On the Certificate Manager window, select the Authorities tab. 5. Under any listed certification authority (CA) listed, select a certificate. (If the CA has a + in the box to the right, you will first have to select that box to get a - and display the CA's certificates.) 6. Select the Edit Trust button. Check marks will appear in the checkboxes for those certificate uses where the certificate is trusted. No, step #6 is NOT intuitive. You might think that the View button would show the status of a certificate, but it does not. -- David E.
