[PLUG] newegg security

[Galen Seitz]

Hi,

Yesterday I went to the newegg web site to buy a disk.  I opened a
private browsing session in Firefox and went to newegg.com.  I then
clicked on the login link on their home page.  At this point my memory
gets a bit fuzzy, but I believe it was at that point I got a "Your
connection is not secure" page from Firefox.  At that point I followed a
link from the Firefox page to the SSL Labs' test page.  I ran a test on
secure.newegg.com and it came back with a grade of F.  Unfortunately I
subsequently closed the firefox private session, losing the test
information and the IP address.  This morning I tried the SSL test again
on secure.newegg.com, and the resulting score was A+.  Now I'm left
wondering what was going on yesterday.  Has anyone else encountered
this?  I *really* wish I hadn't deleted that page with the F score.

FWIW, my Firefox is ESR 52.2.0.
