Advanced Internet Options Query:

Hello everyone, could anyone please explain the following
items under the advanced tab in internet options:

. Check for server certificate revocation: What is this? and why/when should I use it?

. Enable Integrated Windows Authentication:
What is this for? when do i need it?

. Enable Profile Assistant: Should this be on or off in relation to privacy etc?

. Should SSL 2.0+3.0 be on or off?

. Use TLS 1.0: What is this for, when do i need it?

Microsoft seems to give no explanation in the help files about these items.

Im using IE6 SP1+All Criticals etc
OE6 Not installed, Address book not installed,
(Dont need them)
Can anyone help?

 

- Revoked Web server certificates are no longer trusted for a variety of reasons (for example, the private key has been lost or compromised). Modern browsers will automatically check a CA's CRL to determine if a Web server certificate is trustworthy. Without such a capability, it is not possible to maintain a trustworthy networking environment.

A lot of reading. I hope it helps clarify your questions.
