As of Sunday June 4 our website will no longer accept connections from browsers requiring the DES or 3DES ciphers. The main impact of these changes will be on Windows XP users using Internet Explorer. Traffic from this setup represents less than a quarter of a percent of all communications with our web services so it\u2019s very unlikely you will experience any negative effects. Our advice is that anyone continuing to use Windows XP beyond its supported lifetime uses an alternative browser that supports more modern ciphers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Posted by Snap Surveys on 25th January 2016: Cancelled<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are going to be upgrading the system infrastructure that supports www.snapsurveys.com.
