Click Once Question

On project properties page, under signing tab, certificate created from VS2005 for C# Win Apps will expire in a year time.
Q: How can I create a permanent certificate or where can I get a permanent one?

The certificate is only valid for 12 months to limit the effect of your certificate being compromised.  However, as long as the ClickOnce deployment is signed when the certificate is still valid, the application will be allowed to run.

See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172240.aspx for more details.

Assuming the best deployment strategy for me is to install from the web due to certain constraint.
What will happen after the certificate becomes invalid?

I am not sure what is the impact or risk I face, what I did was - deploy without signing the cert.
