I wrote an ActiveX (I use VB 6).

I want to make it secure. I know I need to sign it but I need to know how to do it:

1) Do I need Digital Signatures or Digital Certification?

2) After I get one the Sign tools. How do I sign the code ???

Sorry I'm not familiar with InfoForm...



Edit: But my guess is you need to get it digitally signed, but that's just a guess.
