is your Browser vulnerable from a POODLE attack?

Mine appears to be vulnerable. :(

The Microsoft Security Advice offers three suggestions all of which indicate that applying them may mean that IE will fail to connect to certain servers.

Not really knowing what SSL 3.0, TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 are and what they do I am very reluctant to make any changes that might mean failure to connect.

Any advice on the best option would be appreciated. :)
 
Do not overly worry about 'fixing' the flaw, but be wary of the fact.

It is hard for an 'attacker' to take advantage of this flaw.

you can:
1. do nothing (its been out for a while anyway)
2. Fix the flaw and hope it don't break your banking on line (if it does, change banks!)
3. change browser to Chrome, as in my case it doesn't seem to be affected.


... I'm just the news harbinger. :)
 
Thanks Mucks.

Decided to do nothing ( and keep fingers crossed) :D
 
Opera, wot I use, appears to be invulnerable to this canine predator.

Ner ner :p
