Installing this Service Pack does not change your current encryption level. Setup determines the encryption level of your operating system, either standard (56-bit) or high (128-bit) encryption, and automatically installs SP1 with the same encryption level. After SP1 is installed, if you want to change your encryption level from 56-bit to 128-bit, install the Windows 2000 High Encryption Pack. ftp://ftp.zedz.net/pub/crypto/microsoft/MS-2000/EncryptionPack/ There is no need to reinstall SP1 after installing 128-bit encryption.
