Swallowing 'Access is denied' exception when trying to store the protection key certificate in the local certificate store in Azure Web Sites

Swallowing the 'Access is denied' exception when trying to store the protection key certificate in the local certificate store in Azure Web Sites. This is not a critical failure; storing the certificate is not required.
Azure Web Sites does not allow writing access to the local certificate store (it is blocked by the security model used to isolate each web site)
