title: startSSL class 2 certificate
body: <p>StartSSL.com seems to be selling cheap SSL certs, but I wonder if anyone actually have experience using their certs.</p>
  
  <p>StartSSL™ Verified   StartSSL™ Verified (Class 2) digital certificates are ideal for authentication, B2B and B2C transactions, protection of electronic mail and signing of <strong>object code and macros</strong>. More than that, StartSSL™ Verified provides a level of flexibility and support options not found anywhere else. StartSSL™ Verified supports:
  Web server certificates (SSL/TLS)
  Wild cards (*.domain.com)
  Multiple domains (DNS Alt Names)
  128/256-bit encryption
  Object Code Signing
  Client and mail certificates (S/MIME)
  US $ 10,000 insurance guaranteed
  Certificates 2 Years valid (730 days)</p>
  
  <p><strong>Is it safe to share personal passport information and company information with them for personal/organization validated certs?</strong>
  (their website looks crapy and help email bouncing)</p>
  
  <p>I am interested in signing code, and if that works for web server as well, that would be great.</p>
  
  <p>Any other alternatives?</p>
