ASP.NET and HTTPS

Someone asked on Stack Overflow:

We’re looking at using HTTPS in our ASP.NET webforms application for a shopping cart section. I have read somewhere that we will need to write code to check if the users’ browser/device has encryption to avoid it falling over?

Is this the case, if so can you point me in the direction of what sort of namespaces/blogs etc I should be looking at?

Any help appreciated.
