If the signature of the certificate you have loaded into your browser doesn't match then you have loaded the wrong certificate (perhaps a forgery) and you should not trust it! In general you need not worry -- it's not very likely that you will have loaded the wrong certificate. However, there is a small (but real) possiblity that you may have.

These instructions are for the cautious who are concerned about that small possiblity. If you are concerned then you should check the fingerprint. If you need help in finding the certificate in your browser then follow the instructions for Netscape/Navigator and/or Microsoft/Internet Explorer as appropriate for the browser you're using.

If you are very cautious you ought to determine the correct fingerprint by other methods -- there's a small (but real) possiblity that this Web page might be a forgery! If you mail to the Questworks Consulting CA they will be happy to confirm that the fingerprint here is correct.
