Unfortunately we have some programs that require Windows Server 2003. While I hate having old deprecated servers n my environment, sometimes thats the way it has to be.
This particular server is only used for one program and I don't usually have a need to log in or "fiddle" with it. A month ago I have to refresh the server and reinstall the program.
During the install I noticed that I wasn't able to go to any SSL sites. After some research this is because Windows 2003 has no support for SHA2 certs. I eventually found a hotfix.
The hotfix is 315139_ENU_i386_zip.exe.
Unfortunately I can't find the KB article that let's you download this file. I found it from a forum post and I cant find that post anywhere.
The closest site i can find is this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/968730.
Unfortunately it only gives the 64 bit version of the fix. The one i went to gave me a choice. Since i have Windows 2003 32 bit I was able to select i386 version.
If i find it i will update this post.

ProtonMail
If you go to protonmail.ch they have a service where all your emails are encrypted. If you sign up and get accepted, you will have a password to login and then another password to decrypt your emails.
They are located in Switzerland with their own set of privacy rules.
The thing is, of course if you send to a gmail, bellsouth, yahoo, etc account, its not encrypted on their end. But you do have a choice of sending them an email with encryption and a time limit of the email.
I've been using it for a few weeks and I do enjoy it.

TOR Bundle Comprimised
It looks like TOR Bundle was COMPRIMISED.
To be clear, the TOR network itself was not compromised. It looks like a server was exploited to send malware to a version of the TOR Bundle (it uses firefox) that had a vulnerability in firefox.
