I don't understand why you think you need VS.NET to sign the assembly.
You use the <AssemblyKeyFile> attribute in the code (or in v2.0, the
/keyfile switch) to indicate the location of the file containing the
key. That way you do not have to compile the code as a module, you can
compile it as an assembly.

Well, if you create an assembly with al, around the module, then you
need to deploy all the files to your W2003 machine, so that will mean at
least two files (the assembly file that contains the manifest and the
module). I suspect that this is why the installation fails. My Fusion
workshop shows the details, in C#.
