Anyconnect 2.5 installation on XP fails

Is anyone else having trouble with Anyconnect 2.5 installing on Windows XP?  Once it fails, I can have the user click on the manual installation link and that works perfectly.  However, the auto installation fails.  The users have admin rights.  2.5 also installs on Vista and Windows 7 without any problems.  I get the following error on XP installations attempts...

Is this affecting one XP machine or multiple?  I would start by making sure that the WebVPN portal URL is added to the trusted site list in your browser.  I would also make sure that there are no restrictions enabled in the browser to run ActiveX or Java applets.

It is all XP machines. We have even gone as far as trying machines not on the domain to ensure something with a GP was causing this. We have tried IE6 IE7, IE8, and FF as well. The site is added the trusted list as well.

Hi, it could be posiible that you have blocked active X components on your XP mashines. Try to add exception into web browser to allow active X from gateway, or add it to trusted

Kind regards, Andrei

Its not Group policy.  Any XP machine gets the same error, even machines that have never been on a domain.

Balajirajahpb,

Yes, I did. I figured this out yesterday and you are right on. I changed logging levels to debug and saw the Ciphers being proposed by the ASA and the ones from the client and realized that there was not a common cipher.
