Didn't mean to imply that they weren't...but the question was about
non-Verisign owned certificate companies, and I thought it was germaine to
point out that while Equifax is not owned by Verisign, it is, in essence, a
Verisign certificate.

And I've had enough problems convincing my customers to use Thawte over
Verisign (before they were bought) - I'm not ready to try it again for
Equifax.  $125 for Thawte is not a bad price either :)
