by automate, when a user logs in to our portal, their is a javascript function that runs an embeded windows control which does a database hit to verify that they have a valid certificate stored on our server. if so then it installs the user cert into the windows personal cert store. when the user logs off, navigates to a new page or closes the browser, another javascript function kicks off another section of the control that removes the cert from the store. of course this all requires that the user has run a click once control that trusts the signed code to do this. everything works great in IE and we have the click once plugin for firefox installed so that part works as well, its the part where we progromatically install and clean up the client certs that we have to figure out. I thought I had seen something using the pkcs11 api, but now i can't find it.

I had run across some code snippets for doing this in firefox but now for the life of me i can't find the websites. Does anyone have any ideas how we can accomplish this or know of some websites that i can look at for some ideas?
