RE: Compilation problem in vs.net 2005 with FIPS enabled.

Hi Bill,

Welcome to MSDN newsgroup!

As far as I know, the ¡°Enforcing FIPS Certified Cryptography¡± is a new
feature in .NET framework v2.0. The security has been enhanced in CLR v2.0.
If you enable the setting, only cryptographic algorithms which are FIPS
compliant will be allowed to be created in your managed applications.

The below article shows more information:

I hope the above information helps, if you have any questions or concerns,
please do not hesitate to let me know. I am standing by to help you.
