Does firefox browser support 128-bit SSL?

I am trying to access a bank i work for who just upgraded their system.

Firefox supports 256 bit since 2002 in Firefox 2, so 128 bit is no problem.
* https://www.fortify.net/sslcheck.html
If websites complain about 128 bit encryption not available then that can be caused by the "U;" that is no longer present in the Firefox 4 user agent.
*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_agent#Encryption_strength_notations
You can see the current user agent on the Help > Troubleshooting Information page.
You can try to add "U;" via variations for the user agent setting like posted below via the pref general.useragent.override to see if that works.
If you update Firefox then you need to adjust the Gecko (rv:) and Firefox version to reflect the currently installed version.
Some examples (Vista is 6.0 - Windows 7 is 6.1):
* Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; U; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1
* Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1

  • I am trying to get my application (e-qip )"We did not detect that your web browser supports 128-bit high encryption.Have trouble "Continue" button below, you will need to upgrade your web browser to a version that supports 128-bit encryption"

    I am trying to complete my TSA job application and it is a requirement to complete e-qip questions?

    That website is using an old method of checking the encryption level a web browser is capable of, it mentions Netscape 6.x/7 which are like from 6 to 7 years ago. It looks like they're checking for a '''U''' in the User Agent string. That particular letter in the UA goes back to the days of export controls for encryption software, but those controls expired over 15 years ago. That letter has been virtually meaningless since then. <br />
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent
    You can fool that website into thinking that you are using an older version of Firefox with this extension. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ <br />
    Use this for a custom UA string that should work there:<br /> '''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.18) Gecko/20110614 Firefox/3.6.18'''
    Or just use IE for that one website.

  • Does Mozilla support 128-bit encryption?

    To use IRS Business Services Online (http://www.socialsecurity.gov/employer/bsohbnew.htm), 128-bit encryption is needed. They say:
    "To determine whether your browser supports 128-bit encryption, select Help/About from your browser menu. Most browsers will display the phrase ?128-bit encryption? or "128-bit cipher strength.? If you are unsure whether your browser supports 128-bit encryption, contact the software company that developed the browser."
    But I can't seem to find this information on the about page or in online articles about encryption. Would you please help?

    Current Firefox releases can't even go below 128 bit, SSL2 that supported this have been removed quite a few releases now (Firefox 8 dropped support for SSL2).
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/8
    128 bit is the minimum that you can use with Firefox and you can only go higher (e.g. 168 or 256).<br />
    128 bit shouldn't be used these days and servers that only support 128 bit should update their software.
    Firefox supports AES-256 since 2002, so that is already more than 10 years.

  • 128-bit SSL question

    We are using domestic strength SSL (128 bit) with Weblogic
              5.1 sp5. It looks like browsers that support 128-bit
              encryption are fine, but those that support a lower
              encryption level (i.e. 56-bit or 40-bit) cannot connect. I
              was expecting this, but is there anyway to find out what
              browser is being used and let them know that they need a new
              browser? I know we can do this when they connect via HTTP,
              but what if they connect directly to a secure page? Getting
              a "Page cannot displayed message" isn't the best option.
              BTW the error message that I am getting when those browsers
              connect is a "BadMACException"? Has anyone had any
              experience with this? Is this caused by browsers that
              connect at the wrong encryption levels?
              Thanks,
              Shaun

    From my understanding, it is already included in the code you have. You
    just need to get a special license key from your BEA sales rep...
    Actually yes or no on this:
    Yes the installer bundles both "export" and "domestic(128bit)" files in
    them; however, the domestic files will be installed only when domestic
    strength license is detected at the installation time. So if you get a
    domestic strength license after you installed the product, you will need to
    reinstall the product with your new domestic strength license in place
    ($BEAHOME).

  • Download to support 128 bit encryption

    since trying to download 4.0 version I cannot open firefox at all and need 128 bit encryption that was available prior to 4.0

  • Does Firefox 4 support remote Javascript debugger?

    I have used ChromeDevTools Eclipse plugin and V8 debugger protocol for remote Javascript debugging with Chrome browser.
    Does Firefox 4 support remote Javascript debugger?
    If then, is there a client tool like ChromeDevTools plugin?
    Thanks in advance.

    Symantec have made an update for their add-ons to work in Firefox 4, but they only listed them as compatible with Firefox 4.0, they need to update them to let them work in Firefox 4.0.1.

  • CSS 40/128 bit SSL recognition

    Is it possible for a CSS (11501 SSL) to detect the browser version of an incoming client to see if he is able to do 128 bit SSL or only 40 bit SSL? Is that in the HTTP header, if so, where / which string / ...?
    Thanks for any helpful comment,
    Uli

    the CSS in general can detect the browser type with the command 'header-field-group' and the 'header-field user-agent ...'
    Otherwise, when you define your ssl-server, you need to specify the cipher mode accepted by the module.
    You can list 40 bits cypher modes and 128 bits cipher modes.
    The SSL protocol will negotiate the best one.

  • Does firefox have a 64 bit version?

    I have a program that is java based but requires a 64 bit version of java. I cannot get that until my browser is 64 bit. Does firefox have a 64 bit version?

    UserAgent for the OP is - Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100405 Namoroka/3.6.3 - he might be running a 64-bit 3rd party build.

  • Does Firefox OS support the use of VPN's?

    Simple question, does Firefox OS support the use of VPN's? If not is it a feature that will be added? And if so, when?

    Thank you for your interest and for purchasing a device! The bug reported has went through some employees. I'm sure that we'll get something done shortly.

  • My Nikon D7000 obtains 14 bit raw images. Does Aperture 3 support 14 bit printing?

    My Nikon D7000 obtains 14-bit raw images. Does Aperture 3 support 14 bit printing?

    I am pretty sure ( ) that Aperture has had a 16-bit color workflow for several years.
    Here is a printing hint from the User Manual:
    Use a printer that supports 16-bit printing: If the image you’re printing is a high-resolution 16-bit file, using a printer that supports 16-bit printing results in smoother gradations.

  • Does Elements 12 support 32 bit images in a 64 bit OS?

    Does Elements 12 support 32 bit images in a 64 bit OS?

    Yes.  It makes no difference how your image was created - on 64 bit
    software or 32 bit software.  It is still a document and so it should
    load on any system running any photo-editing software.
    PSE is still a 32 bit software for windows;  Nobody knows when will 64
    bit version come out.

  • Does Firefox OS support carddav, and tasks in caldav?

    I manage a lot of my day-to-day life on an instance of ownCloud which I access on the desktop using Thunderbird with Lightning, and on Android using various DAV apps. I'm thinking of switching to Firefox OS, but I need to know if the caldav calendar in Firefox OS supports tasks? Also, while we're on the subject, does Firefox OS support carddav as well?

    Firefox does support CalDav for the calendars. You can configure the calendar using caldav following these instructions [[Adding calendars on Firefox OS]] . As for CardDav, the support, it is still not available. It is under consideration, and you could request for adding this feature by voting on this bug [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=859306 CardDav support in FirefoxOS]
    Hope that helps.

  • Why does firefox drop support for a plugin with an update

    Why the H*ll does Firefox drop support for a plugin when there is an update in Firefox.
    FF4 has reported that 6 of my plugins that work fine in 3.6 are now not supported. !! This is a joke, and happens regularly.
    As a user (a highly IT literate one) this is annoying and frustrating, and from a design standpoint, unprofessional.

    Plugins as in Flash, Java, quicktime or such or do you mean Extensions ?
    Plenty of Plugins seems to be detected and in use by Firefox 4.0 just fine according to your system details by your post.
    If you meant Extensions then check for updates, look at addons.mozilla.org or the Extension homepage for to see if the author has provided a update.
    Generally Extensions can need anywhere from a simple maxversion bump to a lot more for it to work properly on a new Major version of Firefox depending on what the Extension does.
    It is professional actually as extensions that were not actually compatible may actually cause problems big or small if they were to still just ''work'' in a new Major version release so hence the need for them to be properly up to date on any changes and hopefully the extension author is quick about it.

  • Does Firefox support 128 bit encryption, as required on certain financial sites?

    Some financial sites and credit card sites require 128 bit technology on the browser. Does Firefox use this or will I have to resort to using I.E?

    Firefox supports up to 256 bit encryption.
