I think Patrick said exactly what he meant ;).
Notwithstanding the posting by Leon on how to misspell creatively, Thawte

Most browsers will complain if the common name in the certificate does not
match the server name it was attempting to contact. Most browsers will also
complain if the certificate was not signed by a recognized certifying
authority, such as Verisign or Thwaite.

Or this site also mentions certificates by Thwaite
http://www.oznet.net.au/oznet/domain.htm
Having said that, let me answer the original question. Oznet
http://secure.oznet.com.au/ can sell you 128 bit digital certs at
AU$297/year from GeoTrust.
