Security and SSL / TLS ???

With all the news of 'Heartbleed' I thought I'd have a look at my own computer's security settings, not that I understand any of it ... Windows 7 Ultimate and IE11.
In IE11's Tools menu on the Advanced tab is a section for security. These caught my eye ...
Use SSL 2.0
Use SSL 3.0
Use TLS 1.0
Use TLS 1.1
Use TLS 1.2
All the tick boxes are checked on with the exception of Use SSL 2.0 . What does all this mean and should SSL 2.0 also be ticked?
