Secure Socket Layer - Problem Possible

Post by Soporific »

All of a sudden it seems a few message board accounts and my hotmail account which all use SSL are causing me "page cannot be displayed" errors in explorer. From what I can tell SSL is all jacked up. My internet security settings are all at medium and in the options I have SSL enabled.

Anyone have any ideas how I can get SSL to work, or if it's indeed another problem?

Thanks,

I'm using XP w/all updates. I'm not at home so I can't quote the exact version, but I believe it's ver 6. Using AT&T cable and this just started happening one day. I used these sites in the morning, then by nightfall they didn't want to cooperated.

Thanks,

SSL is working again. Don't know how or why or if it was even that, but secure sites are fine now.
