My PC's OS is 2000 Pro, just downloaded 6.0 IE and I can
no longer go to secure sites, error states I need to
download 128 bit for security reasons. This was not an
issue at 5.1 IE. I do have NIS loaded on the PC.
Anyone have the fix for this?
 
Encryption Pack Installation May Not Work If User GUID Is Too Long
After you install the Windows 2000 High Encryption Pack and it appears to
succeed, any program that relies on 128-bit security (such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer) may still report 56-bit security in use rather than
128-bit after you reboot the computer.

Problems with 128-Bit Encryption Pack After Uninstalling Service Pack 1
If you uninstall Windows 2000 Service Pack 1 (SP1) from a computer that has
Windows 2000 High Encryption Pack (128-bit) installed, the encryption may be
reduced to 56-bit.
