I realized that I misworded my description of the Store.Load, I was thinking
of a different method, the Store will have access to all the certs in the
PFX not just the first one. So you may have to do a search in the PFX for
the cert you want if there are more than one certificate in the PFX. Also
the call to Store.Import I suggested should have been a Store.Add.
