Removing support for anything other than 128-bit connections is
another option. The two concerns that come to mind are the error
message that the user sees and whether or not I can lock down specific
directories, as opposed to the entire site. The last time I tested
removing support for 56-bit SSL, the user got a browser-generated
error, as opposed to my custom error page. It was like the user was
prevented from establishing any connection to the server, instead of
connecting but being shown a friendly error message.

Thank you,
Mike Chabot
