Tom's right; never use the IE mechanism - it always uses the current
user store and often buggers the process.

Want another hint?
*always*, but *FREAKIN' ALWAYS* place the trust certs in the local
machine personal store.
Why, you ask?
Go ahead - ask.
Seriously; I won't bit (hard) unless you want me to...
Really...
Ok, ok...

When CAPI goes a-hunting for trust certs, it will use the following
search logic:
1. "Current User" (user account, network_service, localsystem, etc.)
store associated with the thread making the request.
2. "Local Machine" store

If you always place them in the local system store, you only have one
place to seek them out.

..just a thought...

Use the MMC and put the certificates in the right places. In this case,
put it in the machine store and in the Trusted Root Cert authorities.
