I think I see. I've played a little at enumerating and getting the
version of the security packages. Used '->QuerySecurityPackageInfo'.
But they all seemed to be '1' !

My motive was to get a better version info from secur32.dll. Maybe we
should retrieve the file-version of secur32.dll / security.dll itself? Like:

filever -v f:\windows\system32\secur32.dll
--a-- W32i DLL ENU 5.1.2600.5834 shp 56,832 06-25-2009 secur32.dll
        Language 0x0409 (Engelsk (USA))
        CharSet 0x04b0 Unicode
        OleSelfRegister Disabled
        CompanyName Microsoft Corporation
        FileDescription Security Support Provider Interface
        InternalName security.dll
        OriginalFilenam security.dll
        ProductName Microsoft« Windows« Operating System
        ProductVersion 5.1.2600.5834 <<< !!

Can be obtained using GetFileVersion().
