VeriSign SSL Certificate Installation Checker
IMPORTANT! In order for your SSL Certificate to function properly, you must download and install the VeriSign Intermediate CA Certificate on your Web server. Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 and above automatically installs the Intermediate CA Certificate when you install the SSL Certificate and does not require separate installation. All other Web servers require you to install the Intermediate CA separately.
