I think there is no difference wether I install the certificate in the
AD or at the users computer during install process of the program. If
there is a man-in-the-middle attack or ipspoofing the certificate
doesn't match and my program or the ie brings out a warning. All I want
is that the user needn't to download the certificate from server (which
could be dangerous if the user doesn't review the certificate) and
install because I can ship the certificate with my programs setup.exe.
So I need to know how to install it during setup process...

thanks for your help!
kind regards,
Matthias
