Sorry, I read that incorrectly.

Certificate Services doesn't come with Windows XP, Pro or Home. Comes with
Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000.

I don't know it this will help or not...

Download details: Windows HTTP Services Certificate Configuration Tool
(WinHttpCertCfg.exe)

WinHttpCertCfg.exe, a Certificate Configuration Tool
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winhttp/http/winhttpcertcfg_exe__a_certificate_configuration_tool.asp

What Is Certificate Services?

In Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000 Server, Certificate Services 2.0 can
be installed from Control Panel by clicking Add or Remove Programs and then
clicking Add/Remove Windows Components to install or uninstall Certificate
Services.
