The Cobbler wears no shoes

Since there might be a few people visiting my website to follow up my previous blog post, I figured that I should finally do something about fixing up my lack of a security certificate. I have previously registered with CACert but never finished the paperwork to install one of their certificates.

When I went there today I discovered that the cobbler wears no shoes...

I think you painfully missed the point... When you are using CAcert, you are choosing to trust it as a certificate authority, and as so should import the CAcert root certificate.

For other commercial certificate authorities, this choice has already been made for you by your browser vendor.

See http://wiki.cacert.org/FAQ/ImportRootCert on how to import the root certificate and http://wiki.cacert.org/InclusionStatus for more information.
