About Certificates and digital signing

[Guest]

I am trying to make a digital signature for a Zip Package using the packaging
facility provided in .NET 3.0 . But the problem is that i need a certificate
to use it, can i use a personal certificate, just for test before buying a
true certificate. If so can someone tell me how to get or make a personal
certificate?

You need to obtain a certificate from one of the authorized certificate
issuing sources. You can create a test cert, but you really need a real one
to distribute your app. You can go to Verisign to check out the procedure,
or search msdn.
