Paypal SSL 3.0 vulnerability

I am running Zencart ver 1.5 using Paypal Express Checkout. Runs fine.

But Paypal sent an email out about SSL 3.0 vulnerability to me today in part below:

On October 14, 2014, details were released about a vulnerability to version 3 of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL 3.0). Since that time, PayPal has been hard at work to mitigate any potential impact to our consumers and merchant customers.

To help mitigate risk associated with this vulnerability, PayPal will discontinue support for SSL 3.0 on December 3, 2104 at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Standard Time. Unfortunately, this necessary step may cause compatibility problems resulting in the inability for customers to pay with PayPal on your site or other processing issues.

Will this be a problem with version 1.5 and my set up?

Thanks in advance
SS
