Response to: i need certificate
|
hi!
i am professionally a programmer. I have created an active X control for web.
Browser when browses the page it cant view thw control because it gives option of download and just says Publisher Unknown.
By browsing the net i found that the server needs the certificate in order to allow thw browser to download the control.
yup due to security purpose :)
but i want to test this only .... it isnt operational for weeks even.
i read your message the you got the certificate free
so i contacted you that how you got the certificate with no charges
and if i am wrong to contact you in this regard kindly forward me some links from where i can get free digital certificate
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Jabeen

But CACert is not accepted as a certificate authority by major browsers. (Supposedly, according to news reports, CACert made it into the Mozilla browser, but that's not getting very far in the public eye.) So a CACert certificate isn't recognized by the browsers either.
One can ask, though, whether a certificate means much at all in this context. If I load a page running Jabeen's ActiveX control, CACert could tell me that the control really does come from Jabeen. But what more do I know about Jabeen? CACert can't tell me whether I can trust both his programming skill and his good intentions. We need a better reputation system.
