I have no idea why the AuthentiCode validation is failing
on MS' own files, even if all certs in the path are installed
in Mono's store. Files signed with certs not issued by
MS do validate properly.

You may want to file a bug.

BTW, a more common file than winword.exe etc. is MS' C#
compiler:

c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\csc.exe.

It exposes the same problem, and it's easier to obtain
than MS Office.
