// Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?
define('ENABLE_SSL', 'false');

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

You should really buy a certificate for an online store, so customers don't get popups. Or if using IE7, a REALLY scary page.

HG has their servers set to where you won't be able to use the shared with Zen. They did an upgrade last year that caused using the shared for the secure part of Zen. Support said it was done for security reasons and that there was no work around at least that was the way it was earlier this year....since then we have moved all the Zen carts to a dedi

It's definitely worth the $15/year for it from namecheap.com, plus the $2/month IP.

The $75 HG comodo install includes the cert price the install price and they give ya a free ip on shared....

I am using the SSL from Hostgator, the Comodo SSL and never had any problems. It's not cheap but for online store, it does the job perfectly!

Comodo SSL came well for me too. They have nice set up instructions and excellent support.
