Hmmm.. I've done this now, but I still cannot use IM. I've
cleared the "Require Secure Channel (SSL)" check box from the default
web site and enabled it for only the Exchange and Public virtual
directories. I've also made sure that the check box is cleared from the
InstMsg virtual site. Despite these measures, IM won't work (it still
acts like the SSL requirement is in place). Interestingly, when I try to
open the default web site on port 80, it too states that SSL security in
required and that I need to change to "https" instead of "http". Sure
enough, when I change to "https", the site opens. 
        Obviously, I've not done something right, but I don't know what
it is. Any ideas, anyone?

TIA,
        Tom

Turn off "Require 128 SSL Certificate" in the Default Website in IIS and
turn it only on at the following virtual directories "/Exchange",
"/Public".

Note that you might also be unable to administrate your public folders
with Exchange System Manager because it uses the IIS virtual directory
"/ExAdmin" via port 80 & HTTP (not SSL/HTTPS).
