Code signing (Microsoft Authenticode)

Viewed 29922

I have a program which is used by a large number of people who are not always super computer savvy. I want to make sure that rather than having my executable say it is from an unknown author that it says it was signed by me.

As far as I know this can be done with Microsoft Authenticode. I understand I need a certificate to do this and was looking for one at a reasonable price. I stumbled upon the page Microsoft Authenticode Certificates.

It looks like GlobalSign has everything I need. What is the experience with certificates from them or is there a better company? Are there any good tutorials for someone doing this for the first time?
