Interestingly enough,
Mac IE (4.01) will not allow the installation of ANY certificates,
but the Windows version will allow the user to step though the
rigmarole when he goes to your site (to install the cert). I am not
sure about the cool install link, though.
Hmmm. Good thing I am migrating to LINUX! This worries me, though, as
I sign my own certs, and think the official signing process should
cost about $10.00.
ALSO,
RSA certificates seem to be in browsers as well.
