Default Self Signed Projects

I have created a certificate to self sign a project. Users of the code
install the certificate in their "Trusted Root Certification Authorities"
folder. After the appropriate warning, of course.

Microsoft says
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ex...05249558.aspx),
"Microsoft Office will only trust a self-signed certificate on a computer
that has the private key for that certificate available (generally only the
computer that actually created the certificate, unless the private key is
shared with other computers)."

Question 1: Does that mean that even if they install my certificate in the
trusted location that they cannot have their macro security set on high?

Question 2: How does one share the private key?

Question 3: Does that mean that the computer it is shared with can also
sign projects and make them look like they came from me?


Thanks!!
