i think that cert8.db has deleted itself off my laptop
every time that i open firefox, i get an alert that says that it could not initialize the security component, and when i log onto websites like facebook, i get another message that says that it cant connect securely because the ssl protocol has been disabled, and i cant find the cert8.db thing in any part of my laptop, and ive done various searches
This happened
Every time Firefox opened
== i uninstalled and the re installed firefox

If you can't find cert8.db in the Firefox Profile Folder then try a new profile. Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory > Open Containing folder
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems See [[Basic Troubleshooting|#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting:Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
