Keep your old copy. I downloaded a new version of Opera and it gives me the same attitude as Firefox & Chrome.

Opera seems to work well enough when I run into these cases, but I haven't had a case in a while, so, they may have patched it.

This is unlikely to auto update:

Subject: [AFMUG] Browser for old SSL versions



I have older network devices that don't use modern TLS. None of the browsers want to talk to them anymore. Used to be I could make it work in Firefox by tweaking config options.



Most of the forum posts on this topic say "It's the server's fault, fix the server." Naturally, I can't fix the server in an old device.



The only guaranteed solution I have right now is to open IE in a Windows XP VM. I guess I'd like to have a browser that allows broken, insecure SSL versions, and won't automatically update to break them later. Does this monstrosity exist?
