Which SSL certificates can I use on IIS7?

Question

I need to upload SSL certificates to server from .NET code.

I want to create validation on server side to check if certificate has valid format.

Does anybody know which formats are supported by IIS (.pfx, .cer, .crt etc)?

Also I found two classes to work with certificates X509Certificate and X509Certificate2 . Which of them should I use?
