TC with SSL, IE5.0 and 128 bit

Hi all, 

we've built an insurance calculator and and a online contracting machine
based on Tomcat4.0 with SSL. Doing integration testing I've noticed that TC
with ssl doesn't work with IE5.0 (128 bit). 
It works with with 5.5 and higher. 
I've heard that this is a known bug in IE5.0 and I should upgrade to 5.5 or
higher. Now I'm running into difficulties due to I can't request the
internet users to upgrade or to download IE5.5 or higher for using our
calculator. Does somebody know how to solve my problem ? Can I change for
example the encryption in TC to 40 bit ? 

Any help appreciated ! 
Oliver

Have you tested your app with Netscape, Opera, or Mozilla?  It may just 
be IE5.0's problem.  Microsoft even recommends upgrading to IE5.5 or 
6.0, especially due to the new security holes that were just recently 
uncovered in IE.
