Firefox 3 and its insistence on making you jump through hoops to view sites using a self-signed ssl cert or certs signed by a root cert you don't have installed (i.e. CAcert) is making me angry. In fact, if ff3 is just going to deny access to a page secured with a CAcert certificate by default, what's the point in using the things if you can't guarantee visitors will have the root certificate installed in their browser? Someone remind me why using cacert is better than using a cert signed by my own CA again.
