Firefox is up to date. need 128 bit security encryption

My firefox is up to date. In order to get paperless statements from credit cards I need to have 128 bit security encryption. Card company checked browser and did not continue to make the change to paperless, due to the fact that 128 bit security encryption was not found; also read that: you need to update your browser.
How do I get this encryption? thank you

Can't you bypass that test? 
There is usually a link on the page to continue anyway and ignore the check for the encryption check.
If websites complain about 128 bit encryption not available then that can be caused by the "U;" that is no longer present in the user agent of Firefox 4+ versions.

Firefox supports 256 bit encryption ciphers (AES-256) since 2003 in Firebird 0.6, so all Firefox versions have 128 bit and 256 bit encryption.

In trying to set up an online account, a diagnostic informed me that I should update my browser to accept 128 bit security encryption. How do I accomplish this? I already have Firefox 4.

I can't understand why my browser would not be compatible with 128 bit security encryption. Have set up several other accts with no issues. What are possible problems related to this non-compatibility?

Firefox 4 supports AES-256 (256 bit) encryption in addition to 128 bit since Firefox 2 in 2002.

Firefox does support 128 bit encryption, so you can ignore that warning on the browser check page.

Does firefox 3.6.3 have 128-bit secure sockets layer encryption?

I cannot access the "pay bill" part of the City of Fort Worth Water Department. It tells me that I need 128 bits and won't let me in until I download something with that. Please help me.

The City of Fort Worth water department website for paying bills refuses to give me access, with the message that I must have a browser that supports 128 bits with encryption. I don't know what to do. PLease help me. thank you.

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

BB Browser Cipher RC4 128 bit Security Concerns

When you check Browserspy from your BlackBerry browser via this link:
http://browserspy.dk/
Then select "Security" from the list
Then select "SSL Encryption Check"
For my Z30 I get RC4 128 bit (see picture.)
I also get the same results using this test:
https://www.fortify.net/
There are security concerns for RC4 128 bit to the extent Microsoft has recommended not using it. See these two links:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC4
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc179125.aspx
I do not have any device connecting to the web using RC4 128 bit.
Is there a way to change the cipher strength or order for the BlackBerry browser?
(Just as a side note - because BlackBerry uses WebKit for the browser (Apple uses WebKit) a lot of the browser tester sites pick it up as Safari. I woder if browser testing to determine market share doesn't flag some of Blackberry as Apple due to this "confusion.")
Solved!
Go to Solution.

foryour information, here is what I get for my desktop browsers :
AES128 for Mozilla Firefox 36.0
AES128 for Google Chromium 42.0
AES256 for MS Internet Explorer 11
and also...
AES128 for Mozilla Firefox 35.0.1 APK on my Passport

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"

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. 
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. 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ 
Use this for a custom UA string that should work there: '''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.

SSL 128 bits on OAS 4.0.8.1 for LINUX ?

We used to use the solaris version. To reduce cost, we are moving to Linux. Before, when you needed 128 bits security, you had to order a special patch from tech support.
The linux version we received is the export version and it is NOT 128 bits SSL.
Does 128 bits SSL exist ?
Also, LINUX support from oracle seems REALLY BAD. I'm wondering if we're doing a nice move here... ?
Thanks

After I fixed some of the things I broke while searching for the wrksf failure, the PL/SQL Cartridge now works for me too. And, after failing to get the DB Browser to work by loading it into the SCOTT schema, I got it to work by loading it into SYS. (SCOTT can't see the DBA_* views so loading the DB Browser into the database failed.) I haven't tried any Java Servlets yet, but that's next on my list.
If you want to try my wrksf workaround, rather than using Christoph's, here's how you can do it.
1. Backup liborb.so in the $ORACLE_HOME/orb/4.0/lib directory, just in case something goes wrong.
2. Using a hex editor, such as emacs hexl-find-file or ghex, to edit liborb.so, find the string "/proc/stat".
3. Change the directory, "/proc" to something like "/pfoo" and write the shared library file back to liborb.so. You now have the required modified liborb.so.
4. Make the /pfoo directory and cp /proc/stat /pfoo.
5. Edit /pfoo/stat and duplicate the first line, which should be the cpu line. This will let the metrics parser handle it. Make sure that /pfoo/stat has read access.
Of course, the values that the metrics code gets are now bogus, but that does not seem to be a fatal problem.
Hopefully somebody from Oracle is reading this and the real fix will be in the mail soon.

Is the security encryption in Mozilla browser 128 bit or higher? I have a site that requires confirmation before I can use it.

Just an information question, not a problem. A site that I want to use on line securely to transfer funds requires that I confirm that my browser supports or has 128 bit security encryption. The site offers to check my browser, which I did and it comes up saying that I don't meet 128-bit security encryption standard or something to that effect. I believe I have the latest version of Firefox/Mozilla installed -- updated just last week (Sept 8th, 2011).
Does this browser have 128-bit security encryption?

Firefox versions since Firefox 2 in in 2002 support AES-256 as you can see used on this forum.

I need firefox to support a 128 bit encryption for a website I need to use for work. How do I accomplish this?

www.opm.gov/e-qip/ is a government site that I need to use to fill out a questionaire for employment. It says my web browser does not support a 128 bit encryption which it needs for the site to work properly. How do I increase the encryption bits?

It is a warning that you can ignore.
<blockquote>Warning - We did not detect that your web browser supports 128-bit high encryption. If you have trouble connecting after you click the "Continue" button below, you will need to upgrade your web browser to a version that supports 128-bit encryption.</blockquote>

How do I get 128-bit encryption in Firefox 4.0 for a financial website?

I need 128-bit encryption capability on my web browser in order to use a specific financial website for bill paying, The site's encryption test shows that Firefox 4.0 (newly installed) does not provide that level of security. Help?

I think the www.opm.gov site may be looking for the '''U''' that was in the Firefox 3.6 and earlier useragents as it was one of the things removed in Firefox 4.0 and newer useagents. The site says it recognizes the browser but does not detect that your web browser supports 128-bit high encryption which contradicts.
The "U" stands for "USA" (for the version with 128-bit encryption) (since 1996).

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

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). 
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.
