Velvet Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 For the last week or two I've found the following message whenever I try to visit hotmail or airmiles.ca. I close the window and move on. A few months ago I got the same thing when I went to my bank's website, and eventually it went away.Any advice? "There is a problem with this website's security certificate.

Booche Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Someone at work at the same problem not long ago and the solution was......................make sure your date and time are correct. Go to the lower right hand corner of your screen to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the lower right hand corner of your screen to find it.Yep. That is usually the cause. Definitely the first course of action at least.

Esau. Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 That's true. To answer your question though, it's not a virus. Although, I wouldn't recommend doing any sort of transactions or sharing any personal information within the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I have a computer question, this thread seems appropriate:When I installed the Veetle Player so I can stream sports online, I have noticed that when I search something in google, the search result page is from vshare.com, not google.com. If I go back and click search again, it goes to google.I don't think I can uninstall Veetle without losing the streaming service, or can I?Its not the worst thing on earth, but it is slightly annoying.

Esau. Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Sort of need a bit more info here, some or none of these may apply to you but it helps.-When your doing this google search are you using the google search in firefox/chrome?(top right of screen)-When you installed veetle was there a toolbar also installed? Perhaps one you removed?-Did you install vshare?-If you installed vshare did you also install a plugin for firefox or chrome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
