digital signatures

Suggestion: Please "Authenticode" sign your program. (That would give your file properties a "Digital Signatures" tab. E.g., helps to verify a complete, virus-free download.)

p.s. Code signing certificates are free some places, for free-software developers.

I've looking into signing, however I've been put off by the cost (being a freeware project).
I'd be interested to find out where free certificates for freeware software are available, do you have any links?
Thanks!

I've read about the possibility on a TortoiseSVN forum:

I suggest googling, and possibly add the word "Authenticode" too:
