Is SSL protocal bouncing potential customers?

[James Mcphee]

yeah, the people who maintain such things have basically given up coming up
with weird work around for weaknesses in the ssl standard.  That covers ssl
2.0 and ssl 3.0.  TLS is the new hotness.  While we're talking about that,
also remember to disable all export ciphers.

The downside of this is that this WILL break people's abilities to get to
your site if they're using older browsers.  Thems the breaks.  hehe..  puns.
