Deleting system root certificate might prevent some Windows components from
working properly. The list of system critical root certificates can be 
reviewed at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=293781. If Update Root 
Certificate is installed, any deleted third-party root certificates will be
restored automatically, but the system root certificate will not. Do you 
want to delete the selected certificate(s)?

5. Click "Yes" button to finish deleting the certificate.
