An alert message pops up upon opening saying could not initiate application security component, and it says to check to see if profile has no read/write restrictions. Than when it opens all of my saved passwords are gone, I use a master password and its disabled. When I try to enter in a new on e it says can't change password. I can't even open yahoo e-mail says that my ssl security is down but when I check it its clicked. I'm just very confused as to whats going on.

See Fix the "Could not initialize the application's security component" error message

Rename (or delete) secmod.db (secmod.db.old) in the Profile Folder in case there is a problem with the file.
