there are two ways:
1. send the certreq.txt to some CA provider -
VeriSign/go to web site/ for example to sign your
certificate request. then import their response into
IIS /if any :))/ 
the Bad news - the free one is 14 days trial /testing
purposes only/
2. make yourself CA certificate + key 
sign the request /don't forget to import your CA into
Thrusted Authority List /
