to my knowledge, if the source is not halal,then its contents should be avoided. ALLAH O ALAM

from what I've learnt from my lectures, animal rennet is extracted from the linings of animal stomachs.  The most common is calf rennet, but you can get other forms including pigs rennet.  

Microbial rennet is produced by bacteria, and so since the substance isn't an animal product, its ok.

I would avoid the animal rennet, unless it was calf rennet and is certified halal- ie., the calf was halal killed... there is always the risk that the source of the animal rennet could be from pigs.

wasalam,
Ahmed
