StartSSL is recognized by OS X 10.5 or later, and Windows 7 or later. Older OSes might not recognize it if the user has missed any updates. I'm OK with showing IE6/7 users a polite suggestion to upgrade, but a certificate error looks unprofessional. In addition, Chrome on XP is also affected (if the user has missed the CA update) because Chrome doesn't carry its own list of trusted CAs.

If someone's browsing the internet with unpatched XP then they've got bigger problems than some certificate warnings appearing.

  That's their problem, not yours. Remember, we're talking about Chrome here, not IE6/7.
