selfssl fails cryptographic context

I am trying to use the selfssl.exe program to add a security certificate to my IIS server so I can do some ASP development. I am receiving the following error "Failed to acquire the cryptographic context: 0x8009000f". I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling IIS but I still get the same error. I am running XP SP2. Any help would be appreciated.

    I am able to add a certificate to IIS using the above process. It still doesn't explain why selfssl fails when I know I have been able to use it in the past. Thanks for the link.
