With the Verisign it only has instructions for older versions of Outlook,
not Outlook 2007.
With Thawte, I tried that before and again just now and on the generate
private key page it gives me an error message. It wants to install the
activeX control. It first says Object 424 required...
It says please select the CSP from the list below but the dropdown box
doesn't have anything in it.
It then says the 1024 key generation has failed, would you like to try 512
instead.
It then says would you like to run activeX control Microsoft Active
Directory Certificate Services....I click install and it fails....
I'm using Vista...are you? My problem may be due to:

I'll check more tomorrow...thanks, David
