+ NOTE: The Firefox update causes a regression for certain Dutch sites which is being tracked in Bug #838322.
+ NOTE #2: The current update for Thunderbird still shows the DigiNotar Root CA as trusted in the certificate manager.  This is due to Thunderbird using the system version of NSS. In this initial update, Thunderbird will actively distrust any certificate signed by the DigiNotar Root CA.  Future updates will properly show the root CA as distrusted in the certificate manager.
  
  WORKAROUND (from blog post):
