but Firefox says:
code:
The page isn’t redirecting properly
An error occurred during a connection to drivers.razersupport.com.
This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
It looks like it's because I have HTTPS Everywhere addon for Firefox, and if I disable it on this site then the https url would get transformed into a http (no s!) url.
Now however, since I don't have whitelisted any http (port 80 TCP outgoing) accesses in firewall, the page doesn't load.
But here's the question then: am I supposed to download drivers over http ?
Are they even signed or have a checksum that is displayed on a https version of some page so that I can check their integrity after having downloaded them?
Otherwise, how can Razer guarantee I haven't received intercepted/spoofed/malicious downloads since this is done over http? (does this reminds anyone of FireSheep? when facebook was using http for site accesses and cookies were easily grabbable over the air by whoever was listening on wireless?)
