In order for the Internet Explorer 7 running on Windows XP to display the green bar associated with Premium Extended Validation (EV) SSL-secured Web sites, you must add either our Site Seal or the provided Web beacon (invisible to end users) to your Web site. The Web beacon is integrated into the Site Seal.

Both the Site Seal and the standalone Web beacon force Windows XP to automatically download the updates that are necessary in order to display Premium Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates properly.
