about the unsigned application certificate thingy .. most of us already TWEAKED it to allow bypass already

Hi Kazkin,

Thanks for the information on how to bypass security checking. But I'm not sure if that helps with my problem. The tweak allows the application to run without checking if the EXE file is authorized. But the issues with my utility are:

1. The power status is a system service dll that is loaded by the OS "services.exe" on boot-up. That has to be signed and trusted on the device regardless of the security setting. I know you can add something to "startup" to load it at "after boot-up" time, but that diminishes half the reason why to use system service.
2. Certain registry areas are protected. Allowing an application to run may not necessarily mean that the application can modify those areas.

Hope someone can point it out more on how to get around it in other ways. I will try to sign it with Startcom free certificate (http://cert.startcom.org/index.php?lang=en) when I get the time. <Edit>Hmm... This is SSL certificate when I looked at it. Not sure if this will work...</Edit>

Cheers.
