SSL Certs

I get mine from GoDaddy... they have a few options for you. Their "Medium Assurance" cert is $50-$60 for two years.
 
You didn't say what your use of Certificates is. If they are for employees, you can, of course, just create your own. Employees will have to do a one-time install into their computer's Certificate store.

If this is for non-employees, you may want a commercial Certificate. If you only need secure communication to a web site, you can use the cheapest commerical Certs. If you intend to collect money with the site, you'll probably want the "verified" Cert, as mentioned above, which gives a stronger verification of your identity to your customers.
 
People in my company.. i have it setup now, i just want a cheaper cert since there isn't as many people using it. Just for https encryption
 
What server setup are you running? You could always setup your own cert server. I have mine working great with Exchange. I can serve up OWA with SSL for free. Since you are only using the cert for internal employees there is no reason to buy one.

Well, we use our own Certificates for OWA clients. But the servers we manage are mostly SBS 2003, which automatically generate a Certificate for this purpose.

If you have to create a CA when you don't already have one, that costs time ($$$). And the few bucks you save on certficates could be lost with the cost of helpdesk calls from employees asking, "Why do I keep getting this security warning?"
 
RebateMonger....I bet it takes me less time to setup a CA than it takes you to fill out and mail a rebate😉 Setting up a CA server is easy to do. Oh and you can get rid of the security warnings easily with a little script on a webpage. If I remeber correctly the script is on the MS site somewhere.
