Subject: [worldcruising] SSL from foreign cyber-cafes ?

I read something recently (maybe in SSCA) that seemed
to say:
If you are using a foreign-owned computer in a
cyber-cafe in a foreign country, it won't have strong
encryption installed on it (because of USA export
rules). Thus you can't access secure web-sites (using
SSL; pages named *.shtml). So you probably can't
access your brokerage account, your bank account, etc.
Has anyone on the list encountered this situation ?
Thanks,
