Alas, SSL, along with the DNS system, is just a massive internet racket.
(*) Of course I exaggerate, but only slightly.
In fact, you don't have to trust StartSSL at all. They securely give you a valid cert while you don't have to reveal your private key at any time. Your private key is either generated manually on your sever by yourself or within the browser, on client side.
The important points are: StartSSL is trusted by all modern browsers and systems and they are cheap. There is nothing more to care about. In fact, _any_ trusted CA could be attacked and generate certs for man-in-the-middle attacks.
So, stop your stupid prejudice here. Actually, a CA from the Netherlands got known for being corrupted some years ago.
If IE6 is broken, I can accept that even on a large website.
However, your on-sale price for Comodo PositiveSSL Wildcard is $ 6.95 more expensive than Comodo’s own offering [1] [2].
However, Business validated certificate is still significantly cheaper from us: $65.95 vs $99.95 [1]. Standard certificate is few dollars cheaper too.
Otherwise, I really like the layout of the site. It's simple and easy.
