The Extended Validation certificates are issued manually because they go through a substantial manual process to make sure they are issued only to the people that legally should own them. For all of this, there has not been any indication that any have been issued to malicious parties (I’ve not run down all the links, but they don’t mention that in the google posting, or news stories). And they cost $1500 a year, and turn your adress bar a nice shade of green.
