I have tried to solve this online by asking how too, but I can't get to the replies!!!! it has taken me ages to get to our club forums, it also blocks ie..

Can you get onto any other site? Google, yahoo etc. What internet browser are you using I've windows explorer? Google Crome? Mozilla firefox?

I can get onto most major sites, for EG bing or google home pages and ask questions, but i cant get to any of the separate reply sites... it's as if WinXP itself has a hitch somewhere..

I have tried Firefox IE and Yahoo, all are effected...

Secure Connection Failed Does seem to be a fairly common problem, just wish i could read the cure...

I have run my anti virus/ malware progs, and nothing found.

Bimp .. innit... :-)

From what I've read online, it appears to be a Firefox issue. I would use another internet browser for the the time being such as internet explorer or Good Crome.

I am getting the warning on every site I go to using internet explorer, but it does open the pages......

Thank you for your help Sir..

That is a distinct possibility now for new or updated websites. Microsoft dropped support for xp two or three years ago so I imagine web site support would fall away too.

I would think most browsers/web sites will eventually close the doors on vulnerable dated OS's like XP. I'll second what Trev said, there are some very good distros out there in the Linux world, Mint/Ubuntu etc, I've been using them trouble free for years.

The delay was due to me going to PCWorld yesterday, only yo find they dont sell the required battery!!!!

So I went to Maplins for one today...

As far as I can tell fitting the new battery have cured all ther problems i was getting.... Yayyyy..

Thank you all for your time and help...

That's good to read as soon as you mentioned the out of date certificate errors it was a light bulb moment.
