Security Warning mess

R

ray well

hi,

when my client runs an app i'm developing for him he get the following msg

===================
Open File - Security Warning

The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this
software?

Name: the apps name.exe
Publisher: Unkown Publisher
Type: Application
From: the apps folder

it then has a run and cancel button

on the bottom it says: This file does not have a valid digital signature
that verifies its publisher. You should only run software from publishers
you trust.

=======================

i made a snk file by running sn, copied it to design's folder, and added it
to my app in a module as below, and the program compiled, but my client
still keeps the above nasty msg. strangely other apps i developed for the
same client for which i didn't even add a snk file, run without being
bugged by the above msg to this very day.

this doesn't happen on my development machine. what do i need to do to make
my app not make the above msg to show up. why is it happening.

==========
module contents

Imports System.Reflection
<Assembly: AssemblyKeyFileAttribute("x.snk")>
Module modx

End Module

Is your application signed with a "real" code signing cert?

AFAIK that warning came with SP2 - maybe you aren't running it on that
devel machine but your client is?

ray well

ok lets say its due the sp2, what do i do to fix it so it doesn't come up?

also what is a real certificate and how do u get one, i never had to do this
before?

also why doesn't it do the same thing with other apps that i developed for
this client and r running on the same machine?
