error message '629' Windows 98SE

Can somebody out there help me please I am at my wits end
with this problem.Error message 629 (Windows 98SE) keeps
coming up every time I try to dail up at home to access
the internet.
I have found out what this error means but have'nt a clue
how to fix it.

Error 629
After you install Windows 98 Second Edition, the 128-bit
data encryption won't work, and you will get this error
message when you attempt to create a Dial-Up Networking
(DUN) connection that uses 128-bit data encryption:

Error 629: You have been disconnected from the computer
you dialed.
Double-click the connection to try again.
If you try to (re)install the 128-bit version of the
Windows 98 Dial-Up Networking Security Upgrade
(Msnt128.exe) file, you are unable to do so. When you
double-click the Msnt128.exe file, you receive the 128
bit encryption for Dial-Up Networking (Not for Export)
dialog box. When you click OK, you quit the Msnt128.exe
program.

This is caused because Windows 98 Second Edition includes
a newer version of the 40-bit DUN files that replace the
128-bit DUN files.
But it does nort explain how to fix this problem,I have
contacted a few ISP but there were unhelpful i a since
that all they suggested was to check my setting can
somebody help me.

Install a browser that uses 128-bit encryption, I think.
(Mozilla, Firebird, IE 6, etc..)
