Thanks, I was planning on closing this question today because I was finally about to find the software a couple of days ago, but I'll award you the points for your response. &nbsp;Hopefully that info will be helpful to someone else in the future.<br />
<br />
Also, for the second half of my question, I learned that just the .cab file needs to be signed.<br />

I'm having trouble sorting through all of the information on signing files, and am hoping for some more insight. &nbsp;I have an ActiveX control (.ocx) that I am deploying using a cab file. &nbsp;I have purchased a code signing certificate, but am not sure how to use it. &nbsp;I've found information on signcode and signtool - I think I need signcode although I'm not certain. &nbsp;Where can I download this? &nbsp;Every pointer I've found to it is either obsolete or it refers to .NET, and I'm not developing in .NET. &nbsp;(maybe the .NET sdk is the only place signcode.exe can be found, but I want to make certain I'm using the right exe)<br />
<br />
Also, do I need to sign both the .ocx file and the .cab file that installs it, or just the .cab file?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance!<br />
