SSL stuff: part II

here are a couple of places where you can apply for an SSL certificate. You'll find there both commercial and free solutions:

Verisign
Thawte
Geotrust
Abylonsoft
CAcert
Entrust

I personally use a Thawte one, and I'm quite happy with it. But feel free to review the content of the links that I mentioned.

please check this article from Netcraft on the SSL certificate market, really interesting.
here is also a link to a pdf document from Geotrust.
