They have not completed their 3rd party audit that would enable them to be included in Firefox/Mozilla products. They are available in debian in the ca-certificates package, but without that installed, or if you have a user not running Debian, then you have to install their root otherwise the user is prompted (and I've heard that on XP it flat-out refuses to continue). The following are the latest on the status of inclusion: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215243 http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/InclusionStatus Micah
