As I use chromium the workaround provided of setting ssl3.dhe to false isn't 
going to work.  Probably modutils from NSS security tools but I didn't get much 
time for reading or playing with that.


So, I thought I'd try the suggestion as given in this bug report in particular:

---
I suggest that Mozilla ask portal-plumprod.cgc.enbridge.com to fix
this server configuration problem.  The simplest fix is probably to
disable all DHE cipher suites.
---

I wrote to Citylink "contact us" myself and thought that as I'm a really valued 
customer it might be worth a shot to let then know to improve their very weak 
security.  Although I'm already thinking it's going to be a very long shot

Long story short: the server is insecure (see the upstream bug below).

A workaround for iceweasel is given here:
