Destruction
If you have illegal goods on your ship like Narcotics, weapons or Slaves you wont get protection. and if your weapon rating is higher than whats allowed you wont get federal protection either. if your algniment is +150 you can have 4, if it is 0 you can have 3, if it is -150 you can have 2.

Fed Protection
Just to expand on Mar's response, these are the allowable attack ratings:
FED Protection
Alignment is still affecting your Fed protection. I believe it is currently AR 3 at 0 alignment for protection, +/- 1 for each full +/-150 alignment.
-300 to -449 = AR1
-150 to -299 = AR2
+149 to -149 = AR3
+150 to +299 = AR4
+300 to +450 = AR5
Remember, at AR0 with no illegal goods, you are always protected.
added to this is that if you carry any evil goods as Mar explained, you are never protected....
As a final check when in Fed hit the trader link on the left hand control panel, and Make sure it says 'You are under Federal Protection'.. If it doesn't say this then check you ship again, as you have something on it or in it you shouldn't..
