Does your cert support Netscape object signing extensions? For reasons I don't understand the cert folks make you get a different cert to sign Netscape object files than the cert you can use for Microsoft stuff. Signtool has a -G option to create a self-signed cert. Use that and install the cert into a test profile, then try signing with it. If you can get that to work then you're doing everything right, and it's cert type that's the problem. -Dan Veditz _______________________________________________ Mozilla-xpinstall mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-xpinstall
