Open your browser,click on Help ,select About Internet Explorer,just make sure that you have 128 encryption

Next,click on Tools->Internet Options,select the Security tab,check to make sure that your security level is set to Medium.If set to Custom level it will block the security encryption.

While in internet options under the advanced tab check your security settings (SSL 2, SSL3, and TLS 1) and check your HTTP1.1.

You could add them to trusted sites, and make sure they are not in the restricted sites (site listing).

Still in tools -> internet options -> security.

Also check your custom level settings, Prompting is a safe way to go (they may not have a valid/up-to-date security certificate).

Do you have a firewall installed like Norton? I have had issues where I can go to all regular web sites but not secure web sites. Try checking your firewall settings.
