Currently, the following browser versions support Premium Extended Validation (EV) certificates:
- Internet Explorer 7 on Windows Vista
- Internet Explorer 7 on XP*
- Firefox 3
- Opera 9.5
- Google Chrome
- Apple Safari
* If properly configured: In order for the Internet Explorer 7 running on Windows XP to display the green bar associated with Premium SSL-secured Web sites, you must add either our Site Seal or the provided Web beacon (invisible to end users) to your Web site.
NOTE: Browsers handle the indication of Premium Extended Validation (EV) certificates differently. For instance, Internet Explorer 7 will change the address bar to green, where Firefox will add a green box to the left side of the address. Check your browsers support documentation to see how it handles Premium Extended Validation (EV) certificates.
