You should only need to enable testsign. You don't need to sign it yourself.
An easy way to enable testsign is with dseo :

You can easily get network speed over 100Mbps with GPLPV. IMHO it's
worth the effort.

IIRC latest GPLPV (0.11.x) for x64 requires some hacking on registry
(due to incorrect testsign detection), so if that doesn't work you
might want to try 0.10.x.
