The client certificate has the following extensions:
X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
TLS Web Client Authentication, E-mail Protection
I have not been able to get explorer to place it in the Personal store.
It always puts it in the "Other People" store regardless of what I
specify.

What type of client certificate do you have?
Have you imported it successfully into the "Personal" area?
