Cannot delete old ID…

Hi,
 
From the "Security Settings" box I can't delete an old ID file… (previously imported for testing purpose)
 
See error message on this screengrab: http://pix.am/uSOH.png
(Removing a digital ID is only permitted if the ID was created by Adobe Reader or Acrobat version 8.0 or later.)
 
Is there a workaround to delete that old ID or should I live with it "ad vitam aeternam"?
 
Thanks.
 
 
 
(Same issue in Adobe Reader X)
