Obviously I overlooked the version number "V20" you mentioned. I thought
it was the other way, i.e. that the current firefox version demands a
certain ssl version which the website doesn't yet support. Version 20 is
really an ancient version - it looks like you are still running Ubuntu
10.04. As firefox seems to use it's own ssl code, I'm quite sure that
you can't upgrade the ssl code alone.
