typically no, because "virtual hosting" relies on host headers. The web server doesn't receive the headers until after the connection is established. As for self-signing with OpenSSL - it's not a viable option at all unless you're doing it for an intranet or a site with a VERY VERY small base of users (like 2-3 users).. cuz then you can tell the 2-3 users to ignore the certificate warning. But that's STILL a security risk to you and those 2-3 users. I've found this reseller to be reliable and cheap - they've been in business for a long time and they're still there, and still cheap. http://www.spacereg.com/webcert.html the StarterSSL certificate is only $25/year with 96% browser recognition.... go up to the QuickSSL to get 99% recognition at $80/year...
