A client certificate issue

Hello,

Some our ASP scripts use Msxml2.XMLHTTP object to get the information from other external site.

The sample of such call is the following:

' ==========================================================
Set xmlhttp = CreateObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP")
xmlhttp.Open "GET", "https://www.somesecuresite.com", false
xmlhttp.Send
Response.Write xmlhttp.ResponseText
' ==========================================================

We get the following error when trying to connect to any site with SSL:

msxml3.dll error '80072f0c'
A certificate is required to complete client authentication

We've been trying to install a client certificate as described in the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q301429
but without any luck.

Please, advice what to do in order to resolve this issue.
Which exactly certificate we need? Where we can get/buy it? How it should be properly installed?

Our environment is Windows Server 2003, IIS6.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
