CAPICOM is not functioning, and you may need to manually install the library.

Consult the Instructions document.

The CAPICOM library failed to load.

This can be fixed by running the same script under the Administrator command line. Go to Start->All Programs->Accessories, right click on the Command Prompt, click Run as an administrator, then navigate to your download directory, and run the install.bat again, you should see
