Martin,

If you copy the C:\doc..\<user>\Application Data\AccessGrid folder to 
the AllUsers profile, all new logins will acquire that folder when their 
profile is first set up.  For users already on the system, a simple 
batch file to copy that folder to all current profiles would work.

One caveat is that all the users will need to acquire their own 
certificate, unless of course you want to give out the password for the 
current cert and have each user use the same credentials for all AG 
sessions.
