To examine a certificate, use your Web browser to connect to an e-commerce site, such as eBay, and select the sign-in or log-in option. This will connect you to a secure Web page (as evidenced by the "https" protocol at the beginning of the address). Once connected to the secure Web page, site use whatever method your browser provides for looking at certificates. In Firefox, double-click on the lock icon in the status bar. The resulting dialog box gives you some information about the certificate, and has a View Certificate button that you can click to see the actual contents of the certificate.
