How can we force firefox to check its trusted certificate store on every request?

We have an application on localhost that gets installed from our page. We happen to be running over HTTPS. We wrote code in our installed application to add the certificate to firefox's trusted store. The page that provides the installer for this app then autodetects that it's installed by making HTTPS requests to it. Only, it doesn't work in Firefox since Firefox needs to be restarted so that it reads its trusted store.

Is there any way for us to make firefox read its store again and not rely on a cached result?

Thanks! Mike

Hi, I asked on the #security channel about this and they said the work around for this is to add the certificate through the Firefox Certificate Menu in the Preferences/Options menu under Security.

However they are also interested in what makes it difficult for you to use a certificate from a CA that Firefox trusts by default? As this is something we are looking to improve on. I have asked them to follow this thread for your feedback.

Thank you and we are looking forward to your post!

Thanks for your response. We dropped this approach and went with a plugin instead. Basically we just need to communicate to localhost for the "richer thick client experience", but ran into the issue of mixing https as origin with http to localhost being blocked by the browser (personally I think mixing should be ok for localhost calls but I'm not a security expert).

Kind regards, Mike
