SYMPTOMS
Both the compact-disc version and the Web-site version of the IEAK generate a version of Internet Explorer with 40-bit encryption.



RESOLUTION
An addendum to the IEAK is available to upgrade the 40-bit version of Internet Explorer to the 128-bit version. This component has been developed specifically for the IEAK and can be included with an IEAK package. The component contains a self-extracting .exe file (Ie4dom.exe for Internet Explorer 4.x packages and Ie5dom.exe for Internet Explorer 5.0 packages), which can be installed as a custom component in the IEAK.

The following Web page provides all the necessary information required to obtain the 128-bit encryption addendum:

Microsoft Product Support Services cannot send customers this update as Microsoft must legally verify that a person or company is US based. This is a US encryption technology requirement.



MORE INFORMATION
To obtain the 128-bit Addendum for IEAK 4.x, request the IEAK 5.0 addendum. Send e-mail to [mailto:ieak@microsoft.com ieak@microsoft.com] requesting that the IEAK 4.x addendum be sent. Include your name and customization code.
