Q1126 How can you find out if a browser has support for 128-bit encryption?

With Netscape Navigator :

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if (navigator.appName=="Netscape" )  {
    ver = navigator.appVersion
    if( ver.indexOf("U;")>0 || ver.indexOf("U)")>0 )
        // USA: 128-bits encryption
    else
        // else it's an "I"nternational version (export 40 bits)
}
//--></script>

I can't find any relevant information on Microsoft Internet Explorer.
