SSL ciphers, disable or not to disable RC4?

[Axel]

I juggled around with ssl ciphers and tried to disable RC4, but still be 
able to serve IE under WinXP.

Those ciphers are my choice - if anyone has 'better' ciphers or prefers 
another order i am pleased to hear...

ssl_ciphers 
ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA- 
AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA:EDH-RSA-DES- 
   
CBC3-SHA:AES256-SHA:DES-CBC3-SHA:!aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!CAMELLIA:!DES:!PSK:!RC4:!MD5:!LOW;

You can test your ciphers online at https://www.ssllabs.com
