I am applying to VA and need to configure Firefox using the Advanced Icon; select Encryption tab and go under protocols and then select two boxes for Use SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0. I do not see any of this after going through everything that is available under the Advanced icon. I did change my custom settings history without problem. I would appreciate your help!

Thank you!

The boxes to select SSL and TLS are no longer present in "Options/Preferences > Advanced > Certificates" for quite a few Firefox versions.

Why do you need to make changes?

It is best to leave these settings at their default.

You can only make changes by modifying the prefs directly if you really want to.
