Step 2) Upgrading your browser to 128 bit cipher strength (if necessary)...

Access to the webCARES web site requires very high security!

This is why we require Microsoft's Internet Explorer and 128 bit cipher strength.

To find out if your Internet Explorer is 128 bit choose “About Internet Explorer” from your
browsers “Help” menu. You should see “Cipher Strength: 128-bit”.

If your browser has 128 bit cipher strength click "Next" to continue...

If you see “Cipher Strength: 40-bit" or "Cipher Strength: 56-bit” click "Cancel"
and please upgrade your browser to 128-bit (see below). Once you have upgraded your browser return
to "First Time User Wizard" and continue with "Step 3.) Bypass the initial security prompts".

Note: If you are running Windows 2000 you will need to install the Windows 2000 High Encryption Pack 
BEFORE upgrading Internet Explorer to 128-bit.
