We have been in business since 2009 and have a digital download that is free of all viruses and malware. They ask for all forms of ID which we provide, then they want an email from our business specifically for them which we provide, then they want us to cancel stuff we have already provided, it has turned out to be such a headache. We sell simple cdl practice test software! I'm beginning to think that they are a scam!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-26715605475658354702009-05-30T05:59:54.111-04:002009-05-30T05:59:54.111-04:00Thanks you for the links.

Melih...Thank you for the link to Melih's comments.<br /><br />Melih is correct that I am certainly not an expert on certificates. In fact, that was why I provided links to Global Sign (<A HREF="https://www.globalsign.com/ssl-information/what-are-the-types-of-ssl-certificate.htm" REL="nofollow">What are the types of SSL Certificate available</A>) and Network Solutions (<A HREF="http://www.networksolutions.com/SSL-certificates/guide/SSL-Security.jsp" REL="nofollow">How Does an SSL Certificate Provide Website Security?</A>) both of which provide a definition of Domain validated (DV) SSL Certificates. <br /><br />A paragraph break has been added to the original post to remove the confusion that I was referring to a particular type of SSL Certificate. Rather, as I stated, I decided to visit the Comodo website. I manually navigated to <A>http://www.comodo.com/</A>, clicked Products > SSL Certificates and from there went to the Cost Saving Calculator.<br /><br />With regard to my statement, "<I>it only takes one hour for Comodo to provide validation for an SSL Certificate, compared to 3-7 days for the other vendors..."</I>, that was specifically based on the information provided by the Comodo <A HREF="http://www.enterprisessl.com/ssl-certificate-comparison/ssl-certificate-index.html" REL="nofollow">Cost Saving & Product Comparisons Calculator</A> (Image copy in the original post). Right or wrong, the implication to me is that perhaps more than an hour is needed in order to determine whether the requester is qualified to receive the Organizationally Validated (OV) SSL Certificate.Corrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02110007723754751966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-74211579663736559592009-05-17T17:48:00.000-04:002009-05-17T17:48:00.000-04:00Hello I suggest you read this comment by comodo's ...Hello I suggest you read this comment by comodo's CEO.<br /><br />https://forums.comodo.com/general_discussion_off_topic_anything_and_everything/comodo_continues_to_issue_certificates_to_known_malware-t39564.0.html;msg287266#msg287266Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30199100.post-5754190867500446252009-05-17T17:37:00.000-04:002009-05-17T17:37:00.000-04:00It's too bad about Comodo.

The CEO posts to their community forum, they have pretty good forum support, etc.<br /><br />But, for a while now that have been pushing the ethical line, IMO. Some would say they are at that line. Since they are a security company, I think they have crossed it, on at least a few occasions.<br /><br />When you get a big payoff by blurring that line, it's easy to try and rationalize bad behavior, I suppose. I no longer use any of their products, and refuse to recommend them to anyone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
