We use Comodo here without any issues.  One of the main reasons was price is excellent.

We are currently using Thawte for all our certificates and Thawte is pretty pricey.  Comodo's pricing, by comparison, 
seems almost to good to be true.  Is anybody using Comodo for their SSL certificates and have you anything particularly 
positive to say or, and more to the point, any warnings or red flags?

Thanks,
