SSL certificate needed?

[Saqib Ali]

hmmm freessl....

FreeSSL claims to own all of it Root Certificates (states it on the front
page). Then they claim they are a subsidiary of GeoTrust.

But their own SSL ceertificate for their website is from
http://www.usertrust.com . Which I think is very strange for a CA. I would
think they would issue their own SSL certificate, since they claim to own
the Root Certificates.

Anyone has some inside info?

Thanks.
