SSL Enabling OWA 2003 Using a Free 3rd Party Certificate

Overview Why should 3rd party certificate providers such as VeriSign, RapidSSL, InstantSSL, Entrust and all the others be allowed to charge up to several hundred dollars a year (and run a multi-million company) by providing something as simple as a certificate? Second, isn't it a bit misleading to call a 30 day trial certificate a "Free certificate"? It's about time to change the market trends and instead support companies like Startcom, so that permanently free certificates some day will be trusted by browsers like Internet Explorer, FireFox, Mozilla, Opera etc. This paper explains how it's possible to secure OWA 2003 with a free 3rd party SSL certificate.
