Paypal settings , do I encrypt?

Hi All
Just enabled paypal , and was on the paypal site completing the options but the only one im not sure on is the encrpt one. As SSL will be used on the site, do I also enable the paypal option or leave disabled?

Also, for SSL to work on my zencart is it just a case of the settings being put to TRUE in the configure.php file(s)

Cheers

Rob

Zen Cart will not work with paypal's "encrypted payments" option. Leave that disabled.

And the right values set for HTTPS_SERVER and DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG

and in the admin configure.php, the right values set for HTTPS_SERVER, HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER, DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG, and DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN
