+Summary: signcode does not prompt for the .pvk password
+
+Description of Problem:
+I'm having a problem signing a win32 executable using Mono's 'signcode'
+binary with the .spc and .pvk i obtained from Thawte.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. signcode -spc myspcfromthawte.spc -v mypvkfromthawte.pvk -n "My App -
+Quick Demo" -t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll 
+quickDemo.exe
+
+
+Actual Results:
+Mono SignCode - version 1.2.2.1
+Sign assemblies and PE files using Authenticode(tm).
+Copyright 2002, 2003 Motus Technologies. Copyright 2004-2006 Novell.
+BSD licensed.
+
+
+Unhandled Exception:
+System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: Invalid data
+and/or password
+ at Mono.Security.Authenticode.PrivateKey..ctor (System.Byte[] data,
+System.String password) [0x00000]
+ at Mono.Security.Authenticode.PrivateKey.CreateFromFile
+(System.String filename, System.String password) [0x00000]
+ at Mono.Security.Authenticode.PrivateKey.CreateFromFile
+(System.String filename) [0x00000]
+ at Mono.Tools.SignCode.GetPrivateKey (System.String keyfile,
+System.Security.Cryptography.CspParameters csp) [0x00000]
+ at Mono.Tools.SignCode.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000]
+
+
+Expected Results:
+Since my .pvk is encrypted, it should ask me for the .pvk password and
+continue with the code sign process.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+All the time. But, I created a test certificate (without any passwords)
+using Mono's makecert tool, and i was able to sign the code using that
+unencrypted .pvk.
+
+Additional Information:
+found a similar case and a suggested workaround on following location.
