  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * The support tools functionality changes the default security *
  * provider to the one required by connections to WebSphere     *
  * Application Server Full Profile at start-up of the product.  *
  * This modification can prevent other functionality that       *
  * requires secure communication, such as eGit, to successfully *
  * connect.                                                     *
