Been there, done that. Didn't work either.

openssl pkcs12 -export -in newcert.pem -inkey newreq.pem -certfile
demoCA/cacert.pem -name "MY CERTIFICATE" -out mycert.p12
This should do it, at least according to the howtos and FAQ's I can find. I
import the .p12 file via rightclick-Install in Explorer, then I enter the
password and accept all the stuff. Power up Outcrap and it still complains about
the certificate chain. Bah.
Need I say I'm seriously thinking about blowing up the Windows computer.
