Encryption patch for Microsoft Web Servers and clients
Microsoft recently released an updated schannel.dll that corrects problems that arise when Microsoft clients contact non-Microsoft Web servers. The patch also corrects problems that arise from using Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0 with non-Microsoft clients. The problem doesn't affect IIS when clients use Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE). For more information, see the Microsoft article "SGC Connections May Fail from Domestic Clients."
