Disable SSL checking on a Windows Mobile 2005 device

In the past, you could use Microsoft's certchk tool to disable certificate checking on a Pocket PC or SmartPhone. Sadly, this tool does not work with Windows Mobile 2005 devices.

I needed to turn off certificate checking on a QTek 9100. Thanks to this post, it was possible. With Total Commander/CE (freeware), I modified the registry as described in the post. I can now use the Pocket PC with test certificates.

By the way, you will also need to disable certificate checking when you use wildcard certificates because Windows Mobile 2005 does not support those.
