So I just got this email from our IT department:
Due to a recently published vulnerability, IT is in the process of disabling older versions of SSL on our employee and customer facing sites. This is necessary in order to continue providing secure access to our applications. Other major sites and service providers are in the process of making the same change.

This will not impact any modern browser. However, users of Internet Explorer 6 may be unable to connect to our sites after this is implemented. Internet Explorer 6 has been unsupported by Microsoft since April 2014, and the recommended path is to either upgrade to a later version or to switch to a different browser.

Since Internet Explorer 6 accounts for less than 0.1% of our traffic, we believe this should impact a minimal number of people. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Help Desk.
Ah, SSL exploits, the final death of IE6.

Yay!
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein
