Public perception is not a problem...I'm hosting a non-public
office application for an insurance agent, which will have no
pages for the public to view.

A "self-signed" certificate offers the same security as one
that I purchase?

I would do some shopping around, as there is some level of competition with
certificate authorities these days.  I know godaddy is offering certificates
for 20 bucks, but I don't know if those throw up any warning messages in
your visitor's browser.  If the domains (or the secure portions of them)
aren't something where public perception is a problem, you might look at
using a self-signed certificate, or something like cacert.org (their main
site seems to be down right now, but you can look at the wiki...
http://wiki.cacert.org/wiki/).  If it is something where public perception
is a factor, then I'd probably pay the VeriSign tax.
