    Getting Security Exceptions While Testing!

    I used ascertia.com to generate a free code signing certificate.
    I successfully signed my code with Code Signer Pro.
    Great, I no longer get the "unknown publisher" warning!
    But, now when I test my program using Visual Studio 2005,
    I get all kinds of Security Exceptions!

    What is it that the exception are trying to do/access? Did you code for security access?

    Re: Getting Security Exceptions While Testing!

    I am getting exceptions on a wide variety of commands.

    This is only one of many:
    System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled
    Message="Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.Mail.SmtpPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed."
    Source="mscorlib"

    I did not code for security access.
    I just wanted to eliminate the "unknown publisher" warning when users download the 30 day free trial of my Windows app.
    I had a Temporary key in my Setup1.msi.
    I deleted it from the keystore when I used ascertia.com to generate a free code signing certificate.
    This caused some problems, then I deleted the Temporary Key from my Setup1.msi.
    This is what seems to have caused the problem.
