| This is a pretty bad idea unless you are living in a closed system.
| If I add the "xanadoo.com" root CA to my trusted root CAs my browser
| would stop warning me if I hit a https://www.mytrustedbank.com/ forged
| website with a certificate signed by the "xanadoo.com" root CA.
| The trust model used with typical browsers is such that you better only

| home grown root CAs on the way.

| PS. Please no new discussion about how trustworthy Verisign et al might
| ultimatively be as root CAs. That's a topic of its own.
