You should read the mod ssl documentation as it describes things like he
'CipherSuite' configuration parameter to use in your Apache httpd.conf file
as defines what ciphers the client is permitted to negotiate when connecting
to your site.  Specifically, there's two I see a lot !EXP56:!EXPORT56 that
perhaps would be turnning off such support.

You could also consider getting a Thawte "super cert" which has a capability
to allow the 56-bit export version of IE to not be so stupid and connect at
the higher 128-bit when accessing your site.

Good luck...
