Unable to view secure websites - https


I am using Fedora Core 5 and just did an update. I restarted and tried to check my yahoo mail with Firefox 1.5.0.6. I get an error saying that Firefox does not know how to communicate with the server. However, if I go to websites that don't use the https prefix, they work fine. ANything with https will not work. How do I fix this? TLS, SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0 are enabled in my Firefox settings

**nevermind. Fixed the problem. Just needed to create a new firefox profile. I guess somehow my default profile got corrupt during the Fedora Core 5 updates.**

Code:
firefox -profilemanager
