I avoid speaking to NSI support critters as much as possible and I never ask for anything "out of the box". Been doing 
that for five years now.

Agreed, this seems to be the standard. Note that Verisign is almost as bad. We went to self-signed certs, a long time

service. They probably still won't be able to get Guardian running right.
