It proves your previous point Markus, but still no explanation regarding default encryption algorithm under WinXP SP1 It only mentions that WinXP uses DES as default and that we already know.

Default is AES-256 with WinXP SP1.

The BIG question is, how can one select AES-256 later, and how can one choose DES later on. All that we know now is, that if you dont change the FIPS setting AT ALL and install SP1, then you are using AES...and...when FIPS is set to "enable" you use 3DES. Thats all. I really hope MS gives us some answers... -- My computer security & privacy related homepage »www.markusjansson.net
