    A number of companies offer code signing certificates, for prices from $100-200. I'm wondering if some are better than others, or perhaps the tools some provide make them worth the extra expense. Anyone have any thoughts on who is the best to go with? Patrick

      I doubt anyone has a "best of" list... We use a VeriSign code signing certificate, and are happy with it. It works. I am not sure what else can be said about it.

        Whichever authority is recognized automagically by the browser/OS is best. Otherwise, you may as well make your own certs (which works fine too). Mark

          we just got one from Comodo, this weekend. the process was pretty easy (after a couple of rounds of verification). they didn't provide any tools, since the things you need (basically just SIGNTOOL.EXE) are all part of MS's SDKs.

            FWIW - I second Comodo.  I have a CS cert from them as well and am very happy with it.    Peace!
