Question: I need 128 bit SSL encryption.  I went to the site for Windows 2000 Professional crypto and was denied access. I went to <http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.d11?prd=win2000&sbp=professional&ar=download7sba=crypto>\nto download 128 SSL security encryption.  \n     I was denied access to the site because I do not have at least 128 SSL.  Catch 22 !!!  Can anyone tell what to do ?\nMy home PC is using Windows 2000 Professional.  Thanks.

Answer: Upgrade Internet Explorer first. Or better yet, download Firefox. 128-bit encryption is bundled into both as a standard feature. (Unless you live in Iran or some other encryption-restricted country.)
