You are going to have troubles with international releases of browsers say
40/56 bit criptography enabled browsers because they don' t work with
OpenSa (Apache + ModSSL) on Windows NT but only on Unix boxes.
Even if they say (Mod_SSL) that international browsers have to step up from
low encryption to strong one, it does not work when the Apache server is
a Windows NT box.

My company holds a Verisign Global Server ID (payed 895 $) which as stated by
Mod_SSL Readme.GlobalID enables Apache+Mod_SSL to step up international browsers,
but it works fine on Linux and does not work on Windows NT.
I had to change the web server software to M$ IIS 4 on Windows NT which
steps up International browsers correctly.

Regards.
