    You can easily do it using the Microsoft CA service. There is plenty of
    documentation around on the subject.

    In short, you setup the CA service, browse to the web interface and submit
    your CSR. Then logon to the service as a user with relevant permissions,
    approve the request, et voila, collect your certificate from the web
    interface.

    Regards
