CAUSE

This warning is displayed whenever you run the Money setup program on a system with Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0. It is intended to alert you to potential problems. Money requires a 128-bit version of Schannel.dll.

If Money was not previously installed on the system, Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 installs a 40-bit version of the Schannel.dll. Installing Money, does not upgrade to the required version. To obtain the 128-bit version required by Money, you need to download the 128-bit upgrade for Microsoft Internet Explorer. However, if you had Money on your system when you installed Microsoft Internet Explorer should have installed the correct 128-bit version.
