Sorry if this is off topic, but I'm guessing that the people who use this forum regularly will know the answer.

I have a .dll file from a supplier and I have referenced it in a C# class library. I've called methods etc. but when I try to build the library VS2005 says
Code:
Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'x' does not have a strong name
I've checked the properties of the dll and it isn't strong named, so is there a way that I can assign a key file to it without being the owner of the code?

Funnily enough if I reference it in a website project that builds and runs fine with no complaints.
