I notice Netscape 4 has support for "cryptographical modules" and comes
with PKCS#11 module. Are there any third party modules (PGP?)
available?
Also is it possible to import certificates (PGP?) into the browser so
you aren't stuck with Verisign et al.

There are a number of hardware vendors with PKCS#11 modules for smart
cards
and other hardware devices. These include Litronic, Chrysalis-ITS and
DataKey.

You can import X.509 certificates and private keys. The data format is
an
early version of PKCS#12, which is actually more similar to MicroSoft's
PFX. I believe the spec is available on our web site. There are also a
number of other CAs on the web, including Thawte in South Africa.

Also xcert in Canada - www.xcert.com, unless they're www.xcert.ca.
