Of course to netscape they look like a self-signed cert, since they're
not trusted <wry grin>.

Nevertheless, I just went to the site and ordered one.  After I
submitted (right under the place where I pasted in my CSR request), it
went to a blank page <frown>; they don't support Netscape well either
<frown, again>.  So I cut and pasted the URL into IE, and found it was a
page to sign up to pay money for true site.  I'm still waiting to see if
I'm going to get a cert.  What do they do first?  How long does it take?

If I get one, I'll plug it in and see if it helps
