SSL - A false sense of security

Some lad told me that Comodo makes Malware. He said you even Digitally Sign it too. LOL!!!
I explained to him that ‘Comodo creating and Digitally Signing Malware’, would be like giving the Bank Manager your name and address (then signing it too) after you have just committed an armed robbery at the Bank.
Then I read the forums; a part where Malware authors were downloading a free Comodo Digital Certificate, and using it to sign Malware, to make it look as though it was officially released by Comodo.
I was shocked to see what a Certified Microsoft lady had wrote on her blog about it. I couldn’t read all of it; my fingers were in the way; the Face Palm was just too intense.
