One of my college's at work has a weird problem, the PC is a standard win98se machine with a 56k modem connected to the internet installed with everything standard.
The problem is that when she is connected to the internet she cannot login to a secure site (a normal site is no problem), She didn't know the error anymore. I dont have a clou I hope you do.

First thing to check is the version of web browser. Some secure sites block you if you don't have 128 bit encryption enabled.

Just in case you have a 128-bit encoded browser, check the settings of the browser.... I can turn my SSL on and off, or choose a lower encryption, 56-bit, for example. It doesn't do me any good to try it, because of the same prob you're having, but it's in there.

Not unusual, try also to find out which version internet explorer that you have, 5.0 or up is usually needed. You may also want to update the patches, try to work from the glory site of microsoft, downloads, top ten downloads should be your key. or try this http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/recommended/ie55sp2/default.asp?FinishURL=%2Fdownloads%2Frelease%2Easp%3Freleaseid%3D31770%26area%3Dtop%26ordinal%3D9%26redirect%3Dno

I know that is a long address but just cut and paste. Havea Sunny Day.
