Well, I came up with a temporary solution. I downgraded nss-softokn-freebl.
It's kind of interesting the downgrading nss-softokn-freebl only affected one
package, but "yum remove nss-softokn-freebl" would remove 2041 packages...
Anyway, I have a temporary workaround.

Well don't do what I did !
I did a rpm -e --nodeps nss-softokn-freebl and I was going to reinstall , BUT!! now I
can't do a SU
to reinstall no matter which way I go, I tryed to restart and go in as SINGLE user to
reinstall, that didn't work, now I can't get back into my Desktop.
I tryed the Fedora System Rescue disk and I still can't get back into SU.
I guess I will have to do a Clean Install.
