OF course, MANY thanks to Jane Fleming for providing a number of resources
dealing with CodeSigning, using SetupBuilder to much better advantage, etc.

However, hopefully, this method of obtaining Signtool.exe might be a bit
easier.

Here is a revised method of obtaining three files mentioned in Jane
Fleming's CodeSign May2009 PDF

signtool.exe - pvk2pfx.exe - capicom.dll

If you choose the default install locations (from the install described
below), the files will be installed in this folder:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Bin

Click on this link to load the web page for Windows SDK - Web Setup - this
will create a much smaller download, and install the files needed into a
folder you can easily copy to other folders as needed.
