Explanation / Answer

INTERmolecular means between molecules not within.  The two strongest intermolecular interactions are H-bonding and disulfide linkages.  S does not have the capacity to H-bond therefore leaving disulfide linkages as the strongest.  Disulfide linkages happen very often in proteins, a good example would be your hair.
