SSL Certificate problems after update to Firefox 36
Since updating firefox to version 36, all 2048 bit SSL certificates for our client websites are no longer functioning and have the exclamation mark on the address bar. All previous versions of firefox are fine with the site. The site is chancerygroupplc.co.uk.
Any suggestions?

Running a check on the site using
I see that it is using RC4 which is broken since 2013 See for instance

The site does work using Firefox Release, IE & Chrome. I discover the site appears to be used for secure collection of debts !!
P.S. I note it is now a standards RFC https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7465
