<warning
><para
>All encryption schemes are only as strong as their weakest link. In general, unless you have some previous training/knowledge, it is better to leave this module unchanged.</para

<para
>The options within this module can be divided into two groups.</para>

<para
>Two options along the bottom of the module <guilabel
>Warn on entering SSL Mode</guilabel
> and <guilabel
>Warn on leaving SSL mode</guilabel
>, allow you to determine if &kde; should inform you when you enter or leave SSL encryption.</para
> 

<para
>The remainder of the options are about determining which encryption methods to use, and which should not be used. Once you have selected the appropriate encryption protocols, simply click <guibutton
>Apply</guibutton
> to commit your changes.</para>

<tip
><para
>Only make changes to this module if specific information about the strength or weakness of a particular encryption method is given to you from <emphasis

>.</para
