Synopsis:	Important: firefox security update
Issue date:	2011-03-22

This erratum blacklists a small number of HTTPS certificates. (BZ#689430)

These updated firefox packages also fixes the following bug:

* Prior to this update, some Java applets would fail to load in the
3.6.14 version of Firefox. In this newly-released version (Firefox
3.6.15), Java applets no longer fail to load. (BZ#682251, BZ#682252,
BZ#682253)

After installing the update, Firefox must be restarted for the changes
to take effect.
