Deds, Actually, I'm using the 128-bit encryption of IE5. It seems that on the contrary, the server works with clients who supports 40-bit encryption as in IE4.0 and Netscape. How can I modilfy my httpd.conf so that I could support 128-bit encryption? Thanks.

Do a "Help->About" and look at your encryption settings. I suspect that you may be using 40-bit encryption. Try upgrading your IE to 56 or 128 bit and it should work fine. On some issued certificates though, I noticed that it barfed on 56 bit and not 40/128. This will actually work if you are using Microsoft IIS, but since you are using apache then you have to face the fact that MS *ed up again.
