personally - I am on the 4th week of a simple renewal to one of my sites that has 10,000 unique shoppers a day..
They are horribly slow - I recommend renewing NO less than 1 + months prior. As for the pricing update - for $60 or so dollars a year - I don;t think thatis that crazy for the low end cert- still cheaper then other options. jay miller Jim McAtee wrote: Thawte recently announced a substantial price increase, although it's not yet reflected on their web site. I'm also hearing a lot of horror stories on the ISP lists regarding turnaround times at Thawte for new certs. What used to take two or three days is now taking as long as four weeks. Another Verisign disaster story. >From an email dated July 4th. The 'SGC' product is the 128 bit supercert. The new pricing is as follows: Product New Renew SSL 1 Year $199 $159 SSL 2 Year $349 $299 SGC 1 Year $449 $399 SGC 2 Year $849 $749 Codesigning 1 Year $199 $159 Codesigning 2 Year $399 $319 Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin Langevin" <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 11:56 AM Subject: Re: SSL Nope...they have 128 bit Supercerts now...

This can be a problem. Many (maybe most) won't do it. I believe Thawt (owned by Verisign) only has up to 40 bit certs. http://cognac.epfl.ch/SIC/SL/CA/ <http://cognac.epfl.ch/SIC/SL/CA/> Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chad Gray" <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 1:28 PM Subject: OT: SSL Is Verisign the only company you buy a 128bit certificate from? $900 per year, per site seems a bit steep. ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
