Support for SSL v2 (Secure Sockets Layer 2.0) is disabled by default. While most sites have moved to a better encryption protocol, some have not. If you access a site that only supports SSL v2, you will receive the above error in Firefox.

You should contact the owner of the site, and ask them to a support a newer encryption protocol. You can also report the site to the Firefox developers by opening the Help menu and choosing Report Broken Website....

If you must access the site, you can turn on SSL v2 support.

SSL v2 is disabled for a reason. It is a flawed security mechanism, and any information you send to an SSL v2 site could be intercepted by someone else.
  1. Type about:config in the address bar and press EnterReturn.
    A warning page may appear. Click Accept the Risk and Continue to go to the about:config page.
  2. In the Filter: box, type ssl2.
  3. Double-click each preference line to set it to true.

With SSL v2 enabled, you should now be able to access the site.
