Okay, I've got a user who has to access a web site that requires 128-bit encryption. Does Firefox 0.9.2 support 128-bit encryption and how do I verify or implement this?

Practically all https uses secret key algorithms with key sizes of at least 128 bits these days.

Here's statistics on usage:

To be sure about a particular site, go to any
SSL site like this:

https://secure.goldmoney.com/user/login.php

Then click on Tools, then Page Info.

on the Popup, click on Security.

Doen the bottom it will tell you which
algorithm and which key length.  In this
case it is AES-256 256 bits.  Cool!
