My bank sent me this message: Due to the recently announced POODLE malware, Dollar Bank will turn off access to Online Banking, Cash ANALYZER, loan applications and deposit account opening via our website on October 23, 2014 for visitors utilizing browsers with SSL 3.0, an older standard. We recommend upgrading to the most current version of your browser. For assistance, click here.

I'm using Firfox 32.0. Will this work with my bank's site?

You should update to Firefox 33.1.1 (the latest and most secure version of Firefox) but yes it should work with your bank's web products

Hello ichido, the above Tyler Downer's suggestion is the correct and the only one at this moment (without to use an extension).

SSLv3 will be disabled by default in Firefox 34, which will be released on Dec 1 or 2. See the "Additional Precautions" in the next link : https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2014/10/14/the-poodle-attack-and-the-end-of-ssl-3-0/

thank you
