In case you missed it Google has a serious problem with Symantec SSL certificates and is removing their Greenbar status in Chrome as well as rolling out "not trusted" notices for sites using mis-issued certs by Symantec.

In response to the problems Namecheap is offering free replacement of the certificates - you get whatever time is left on your Symantec SSL certificate on a Comodo SSL for free.

Google announced that its Chrome web browser will not trust an SSL certificate from Symantec for more than 279 days.
