  6. Click the "Next" button.
  7. Ensure that the certificate is automatically stored (default radio button option) and click the "Next" button:
  8. A final summary review screen will be displayed, click the "Finish" button:
  9. A Security Warning dialog will appear, asking for confirmation of the installation:
  10. Click "Yes" to confirm. A message box will appear, stating success or failure.
  11. Click "OK" to close any Certificate detail dialogs.
  12. On the original warning dialog...
