Is it possible to sign object code (.exe , .dll etc) with any SSL certificate that we buy ? or does this have to be mentioned clearly in the list of features of SSL certificate..
It's possible that an ssl certificate may have that capability added, but in my experience they've always been sold as separate products. If you need a code signing certificate the cheapest I've found was through Tucows. It's hidden in their developer resource subdomain. We paid $199 for a 3 year code signing cert.
