If you are a software developer then you probably already know that Microsoft Windows and web browsers such as Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox use a technology called Authenticode to verify the publisher of downloads and check that they have not been infected by a virus since they were created. If your software is not signed with a digital certificate, users will receive a warning that the publisher could not be verified and asked whether they want to continue running it. Many users will decide to play safe and click "Don't run", costing you lost sales.
