// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.CertStore')

// This part of the example is specific to Windows because it is opening the Windows Current-User certificate store.

// Find the certificate with the desired thumbprint
// cert is a Chilkat.Cert

// Alternatively, one could load a certificate store object with certs from a PEM file,
// and do the same thing..
