Hi,...
we had similar problem in our project.
I have never seen installation which turns the driver signing off
and on.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=298503
Our solution was to create appliaction ( using AutoIt -
http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/)
to automaticaly answer theese dialogs.
This solution was no so nice, but works OK (problem was to collect
the text translations used by MS to detect the correct window).
Now our driver is digitaly signed and the original problem (and not
very nice solution) is gone.
regards
Stefan
