I'm trying to build an application (interactive, it is running under a normal account) that communicates to a server using SSL.
When I try to connect I get the exception (taken from the sample http client):
Exception occurred while sending: Org.Mentalis.Security.SecurityException: An error occurs while communicating with the remote host. --->
System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: CryptoAPI cryptographic service provider (CSP) for this implementation could not be acquired.

On the other server I receive an error saying that the connection was abruptly closed during the initial handshake.
I've tried both with the precompiled dll v1.0.13.709 and the source code. I've tried running the sample http client and it's gving me the same error.
The computer were this is running is Windows 2000, with .NET 1.1, as a normal user. The security of the workstation is pretty tight so there may be access restrictions causing this (though I don't really know were to look for).
I've seen this problem, but only for services running under the system account, so I'm clueless on what ay be happening.
Any idea on what can I try/look for?
