Windows 7 Trouble Installing Verisign Certificate from Windows XP to Windows 7

[ben1970]

Hello,

I have a problem with Verisign. I tried to download a certificate through a network for my company. Windows 7 wouldn't let me do that. I downloaded it from an XP machine, and when I try to install it on my Windows 7 I get this message:

The operation was Import P12::IVSProfMgmt.ImportP12
Errorcode is 80002003

Any suggestions on how to overcome this problem?

Thanks
