Well, it comes as part of Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008. If
you aren't using either of those, download Visual Studio 2008 Express,
and see if it's in there.

Can you say more specifically where I can find it on the Visual Studio 2008
Pro install DVD (MDSN download). I can't find either this utility nor the
LPKtool - neither on disc, nor as part of the install.
Thanks for your help,
Adrian

I've no idea what the LPK tool is, but if you search Program Files for
signtool.exe - the name changed at VS.2005, sorry for forgetting that -
you should find it. May be part of the Windows SDK that comes with
Visual Studio. More details when I've been to work tomorrow.

Just in case anyone else is hunting:
VS.2003
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\
Common7\Tools\Bin\signcode.exe
VS.2005
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\
Common7\Tools\Bin\signtool.exe
VS.2008
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\signtool.exe
The arguments to signtool are /not/. the same as to signcode; MS did a
re-write.
