Thanks... this info puts me on the right track. Just seems funny that one can't use pgp certs this way as it would give a certain amount of non-repudiation to the browser connection to said bank. In other words, it is actually me using my browser to connect to my bank in one concise key rather than multiple keys for different applicaitons. Anyway thanks for help... now to get my cert signed to be 'official' with that!
