When the Certificate Import Wizard comes up, it does not show any
option in the File Filter drop down pertaining to *.p12 (One releveant
filter it shows is *.pk7b). Additionally,
I have tried the same thing on  IE 4.0 & 5.0 with the same result
(Invalid Input Information) ,though Netscape works fine. 

So it is reasonable to say IE has some major probs with importing PKCS
certs.

Try blasting them with this issue on their website (Probably in the MSIE
feedback section somewhere if they have it :).
Also try your luck with latest IE 5.5.

Cheese,

Parag
