I am runing win2000 professional with internet explorer 6.0. When I want to open some url address, it gives me the following messages "Information you exchange with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. However, there is a problem with the site?s security certificate.

1.The security certificate is from a trusted certifying authority.

2.The security certificate has expired or is not yet valid.

3.The security certificate has a valid name matching the name of the page you are trying to view.

4.Do you want to proceed? Yes. N0. Details.

In this case, some url like "http://www.genie.co.uk" etc. will not accept my login password. The funniest part of it is that other computers in my house running win2000 pro/ win98is not having such problem. No. 2 options sound funny. Now how can I rectify this problems?

It sounds like the certificate manager in IE6 does not like the certificate for the site you are using. Do the other machines have IE6 on them? We had a similar problem with Visual Interdev when we upgraded the SSL certificates on our websites. There was an incompatability with the certificate manager and the certificate.

There are other operating system in the network that uses the ie6. I have never for one day encounter any mistake. and all sites opens up perfectly. In this case, could it be a hardware problem. I will be glad to hear more from you regarding this same problem. I called up genie.co.uk who could not solve the problem either.
