Mitigate SSL3 “poodle” vulnerability on Windows 7 and Windows XP

Hello,

I work for a company that has a large user base  of employees that are remote workers. Their computer are mostly Windows 7 with a  XP systems. I’m looking for a way to disable the use of SSL 3 on the client systems due to the “Poodle” vulnerability.  Group Policy is not an option as the machines are not domain joined but are managed by Altiris.  I’ve seen some sites suggest that adding the following registry entry to the  client system can achieve  this goal:   (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/3009008.aspx)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\SSL 3.0\Server]"Enabled"=dword:00000000

Is this accurate?  The results of my testing are unclear on this. I was thinking I could create  script that would add this key to the registry on the client systems and deploy it with Altiris.

Thanks for your assistance
