Peter,
Since I do not know enough about certificates to truly answer that
question, I will respond with one:
Is the expired certificate still encrypting the information?
If the answer to the above question is no, then yes this is a major priority!!
If the answer to the above question is yes then it could wait until Monday,
in my opinion.
Sorry for the delayed response I just got home from the cape.
Lynne
