Think I've worked out the solution....

VeriSign offer a "Pro" and a "normal" package. The former requires 1024 bit
keys, the latter accepts 1024 and 512 bit keys. The normal package will
allow 128 bit encryption with browsers that allow this (most do nowadays in
the UK).

So, I need to export a 1024 bit private/public key certificate from IIS, get
the far cheaper package from VeriSign (the non-Pro version) and will then be
offering 128-bit session key communication with all my customers, providing
they don't use the crippled 40-bit version of the browser.
