I am sure Verisign and InstantSSL sell them... there will be others, look for "code signing certificate". You can use a self-signed certificate for testing the signing process or internal use only but not for deployment to the public.

PS: I've never done it either.

You do this exactly the same way you do it for any application on your platform. On Windows you use the Microsoft "signtool":http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8s9b9yaz.aspx and a valid code signing certificate
