[ic] An SSL Question

[Victor Nolton]

Variable    SERVER_NAME     thediapersuperstore.com
Variable    SECURE_SERVER   https://thediapersuperstore.com

Lame workaround but I dont see why it wouldn't work unless your dns 
doesn't allow it.but if you point them to www.thediapersuperstore.com 
interchange would change it to http://thediapersuperstore.com in it's 
pages.

BUT, I would contact thawte and request a new cert since the www was dropped.
