How do I disable rogue diginotar certificate?

Windows Secrets Newsletter reported problems with diginotar root certificates and published instructions for manual removal of the certificate(s) from Internet Explorer (IE) but not Foxfire. Also, Microsoft issued a patch to remove the suspect certificates for IE. Firefox help notes indicate that Mozilla was aware of the problem and issued Firefox updates to fix the problem; however, when I view certificates in Firefox, several Diginotar certificates are still listed and when I delete them they just come right back. Is there a fix for the suspect Diginotar certificate problem? (I repeat, when I delete the certificates they disappear from the list, but the next time I look they are right back on the list.) GHS

Firefox 6.0.2 has a patch to disable the DigiNotar root certificates by removing all trust bits.
You can see that if you click the edit button in the Certificate Manager
