There is something still no right in to all this. If I apply the registry key hack then the Address Book is downloaded by the OC Clients but if I don't apply it, the Address Book is not downloaded (I have waited 24 hours). The OC client doesn't report any error such as: "Cannot syncronize with the corporate address book. This may be cause the proxy server setting in your web browser does not allow access to the addres book."

So my question is, the OC clients should be updating on their own. The reg hack is a hack and not a solution to this problem. What am I missing here?

Yes, you need to create the key. It does not exist by default.

Thanks for the heads up. I've used the registry keys though as they are and seemed to work fine. Out of curiosity, what OS are you using?

FYI – The quotation marks in your registry entries need to be changed to regular quotations before you can import them using a .reg file (for me, anyway).

JaBier,

It might also have to do with the CRL not being available to the client – check that the CRL location in the certificate is available to the client, if not (and you are using your own internal CA) you can change / add CRL paths in the CA Authority utility before re-issuing new certs.
