[edit] Encryption strength "U" / "I" / "N"
Netscape, Mozilla, Opera and some others use one of these three letters to specify the browser's encryption strength. Since the US government formerly wouldn't allow encryption higher than 40-bit to be exported from the USA, different versions were released with different encryption strengths. "U" stands for "USA" (for the version with 128-bit encryption), "I" stands for "International" (the browser has 40-bit encryption and can be used anywhere in the world), "N" stands for "None" (no encryption). Originally the "U" version was allowed for download only from the USA, but since then the US government has loosened its policy and exporting high encryption is now permitted to most countries (see Export of cryptography for more information). Now Netscape and Mozilla distribute their browsers only in a "U" version, supporting up to 256-bit encryption, since an international version is no longer required.
