[OT?] Legitimising a developer as a 'publisher' in Windows 7

[Bob Sneidar]

Interesting. What do you do? Run an application that applies the code signing certificate to the application? Or is there something in Livecode we would need to do? 

Also, is the cert on a per app basis, or is it $95/yr for ALL apps you develop?

This works fine on both platforms except that every time (I do mean every time) I start the thing on Windows, I get a warning message from "User Account Control" asking if I want "... the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer". Well of course the answer is 'yes', but how can I make myself known to the Windows machine as a known publisher? Is it some ritual I have to go through with Microsoft (I expect it is)? I don't want the paying users of this program to have to go through this warning, but I have absolutely no idea how to stop it.
