Certificates serve both the purpose of securing a connection and 
identifying the operator of a server. Just any certificate will be 
sufficient to secure a connection, you can just use a self-issued 
certificate for that. However, to identify the operator the CA has to 
establish the identity of the person that asks for a certificate.
Since I don't believe they can positively identify you to be the person 
you say to be within a few minutes I consider them insecure and have 
deleted their CA signing cert from my system.

Thanx for the warning,

Jochem
