ok its because its registered for a different url (subdomain) but still concerned. if I have subdomain.domain.com, which the SSL certificate is issued for, I will be redirecting that url to a different url - would this still be ok? i will have http://exchange.domain.com but this will redirect to https://domain.com/exchange

ok, i rang up support and they helped me - refunded the SSL And then credit my account so now im creating a new SSL. I need to create the ssl for the site... https://domain.com/exchange its asking me to go ahead and create the CSR, which I Can do however where exactly do I put in the correct url for the SSL which is to be given for? here is a quote/instruction from their site: but my site has exchange and its hosted on https://domain.com/exchange (notice the VDir... /exchange) but its saying dont enter anything than just the domain itself...but that makes no sense...or does it not matter as long as the domain is the same on the https protocol?

That's a well explained self-help.
