This is a browser-end problem. What's happening is that the "Secure
Object Provider" is set to Medium-grade security... which notifies the
user before their certificate is used. (If it was High-grade security, it
would prompt them for their password each time their certificate is used.)
I can't remember how to disable this, or change the setting... I'll look
this weekend, and see if I can find it.
