Detecting digital signing issues in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx?kbid=813442

To resolve this behavior, re-register the Softpub.dll, Wintrust.dll,
Initpki.dll, Dssenh.dll, Rsaenh.dll, Gpkcsp.dll, Sccbase.dll, Slbcsp.dll,
Mssip32.dll, and Cryptdlg.dll files.

To do so, follow these steps:

1.Click Start, and then click Run.
2.In the Open box, type cmd, and then click OK.
3.At the command prompt, type regsvr32 softpub.dll, and then press ENTER.
4.Click OK when you receive the message that DllRegisterServer in Softpub.dll succeeded.
5.Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the following files: Wintrust.dll, Initpki.dll, Dssenh.dll,
Rsaenh.dll, Gpkcsp.dll, Sccbase.dll, Slbcsp.dll, Mssip32.dll, and Cryptdlg.dll.
6.Type exit, and then press ENTER to quit Command Prompt.
