Opera is the biggest issue really.
Can anyone say if the Geotrust certs are compatible with Safari?
Actually, I can get the Comodo/Baltimore certs for half the price of the geotrust but the Tucows ordering system is just too easy to use and there is no chain cert to install (mixing chain certs on IIS5 seems to be a no-go).
I have end d up standardising to the Geotrust certificate.

I know this has been discussed here in the past, but I'm looking for
some sane, unbiased numbers regarding browser 'compatibility' with
ssl certificates / which certificates are the best to offer customers. According to some info I've seen, Geotrust might not be the best
price/value based on compatibility:
http://www.whichssl.com/browser_recognition_table.html (yes I know
this isn't at all unbiased and some of the numbers look to be
inaccurate)
If IE 5.0 has 1-1.5% of the browser market though, it seems a shame
to miss out on these people with Geotrust. I havent been able to
get good numbers on the market share of other 'fringe' browsers that
might or might not work with Geotrust, InstantSSL, Entrust,
Baltimore, etc...
I can't seem to find a single word regarding this rather important
issue in the 'reseller resource center' either....
Thanks,
