What about 68kmla.org prevents classilla from loading it?

[jholt5638]

I know it involves SSL somehow but is it that the libraries that classilla links against don't understand the encryption being used? If it is is it possible to either backport the changes or build a more recent version of the SSL library and link against it or is there something in classilla that prevents from doing so easily? I have some basic C/C++ knowledge so I am going to try and dive into it, but in pointers would be helpful thanks

I think there have been discussions about this, and it comes down to Classilla's implementation of SSL being too old.

With enough persistence, I'm sure Classilla could be improved to include a more recent SSL implementation, but I don't know how trivial it is (ClassicHasClass would know, but he no longer seems to partake in these forums).

I hope Clasilla gets modernized with this, as it would probably make it not only more useful, but more secure (not that anybody cares about those of us using OS 9, but whatever....)

Lack of support for SNI and probably algorithms. Here's a nickel, get yourself a better computer.

personally I don't think you could buy a computer for a nickel. Unless its for free.

Everything is fine again with the latest Classilla 9.3.3. After a long periode without 68kmla I can use this forum again.

yea, it renders the mobile version really well.

Especially if you unblock javascript (otherwise, some things don't render quite right).

It's actually kind of ironic that an older Mac with OS 9 is more secure (in some ways) than a somewhat newer Mac running an unsupported version of OS X.

My mother still doesn't believe me when I say that my Windows 3.1 computer is highly unlikely to get a virus when I browse the internet with it lol.

Does this sites still load today? Im waiting for a VGA adapter for my mac, so I can't find out.

Yes, it does.
