PayPal need updated browser, will Firefox comply with their requirements please ?
It seems that others are having this problem too. I am secretary of a boat club, & we get lots of our annual membership subs paid through the Paypal link on our website. I am told by Paypal that if I have the latest version of my browser, it "should be okay", but I really need assurance that by continuing to use Firefox with my old laptop, which uses Windows 7 (I hate Windows 10 & blocked it), I can still access the funds paid in through Firefox, & transfer them to our club acc ount. If anyone can either re-assure me, or tell me in simple terms, what I must do, them I would be most grateful please. Many thanks. Martin.

Mozilla does not need to do any changes or updates in Firefox.
The message is not saying Firefox 60.0 itself is not compliant as PayPal is reportedly looking for Firefox 49.0 and later and that the browser supports at least TLS 1.2. https://www.paypal.com/us/smarthelp/article/how-do-i-check-and-update-my-web-browser-faq3893
Firefox has supported TLS 1.2 by default since Firefox 27.0 Release (Feb 4, 2014) as per Bug#861266.
As of Firefox 60.0 and later: From Firefox 60 Release Notes:
On-by-default support for draft-23 of the TLS 1.3 specification
There are TLS settings prefs on the about:config page that specify the minimum and maximum TLS version.
- security.tls.version.min = 1
- security.tls.version.max = 4
1 means TLS 1.0 2 means TLS 1.1 3 means TLS 1.2 (default for max as of 27 to 59 Releases) 4 means TLS 1.3 (default for max as of Fx 60.0)
