Logon Error ?

The following error is logged in SQL Server 2005 Logfile. Could anyone
explain why this error is happening ?
Message
The server was unable to load the SSL provider library needed to log in; the
connection has been closed. SSL is used to encrypt either the login sequence
or all communications, depending on how the administrator has configured the
server. See Books Online for information on this error message: 0x6d.
[CLIENT: <named pipe>]Hi,
Have you installed an SSL certificate on the SQL Server?
If not then remove any configuration you may have on the server to force
encryption for connections (SQL Server Configuration Manager). You should
also remove any configuration on the client computers requiring them to
connect using encryption (SQL Native Client Configuration).
In BOL, please check

server or client.
any other clues ?
