One reason you may want to run ICSF with no crypto features is if you are doing SMPE receivefromnetwork activities. While I realize the function can be turned off, there is benefit to having the HASH function in SMPE available to determine that your SMPE downloads from SHOPZ were not corrupted. The HASH function requires ICSF to generate it(or at least it used too).

If so does it do anything? Well, as I read the manual, apparently it will start. If it finds no crypto-assist features, it will apparently do "whatever it does" in software (and presumably "run up" our VWLC bill in the process).
