* Let's load a .pfx and examine the encryption algorithms used to protect the private key:
lnSuccess = loPfx.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/test_secret.pfx","secret")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loPfx.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loPfx
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Examine the algorithms:

* "pbeWithSHAAnd3_KeyTripleDES_CBC" or "pbes2"?
? "Algorithm: " + loPfx.AlgorithmId

* If the algorithm is "pbes2" then examine the actual encryption and HMAC algorithms used within pbes2.
* (If the algorithm is NOT "pbes2", then the following properties are meaningless and will not be modified from their previous values prior to loading the PFX.)
? "Pbes2CryptAlg: " + loPfx.Pbes2CryptAlg
? "Pbes2HmacAlg: " + loPfx.Pbes2HmacAlg

* Our output so far:

* Algorithm: pbeWithSHAAnd3_KeyTripleDES_CBC
* Pbes2CryptAlg: aes256-cbc
* Pbes2HmacAlg: hmacWithSha256

* This tells us that the PFX we loaded was protected using triple-DES with SHA1.
* (Most existing .pfx/.p12 files use 3DES w/ SHA1.)
* The Pbes2CryptAlg and Pbes2HmacAlg properties do not apply here because the AlgorithmId is not equal to "pbes2".  We can ignore those values.

* Examine the last JSON data collected in the call to LoadPfxFile.  This gives us information about what is contained in the PFX, including extended attributes.
