    Suspect it might be at your providers end
    The certificate is there to ensure that where you are trying to log into is who they really say they are.
    Is everything else working ok?

    well, can log on here and any links on pages go through ok!:confused:
    but say on amazon, ordered a book and i just wanted to check delivery due date wont let me access that page! and cant access my email at all, which is more of an inconvenience than anything! but frustrating at the same time!!

    What happens when you try this https://secure.del.icio.us/login ?
    It is just a secure link to see if you are having problems with all secure pages

    when i hads norton i couldnt access the forums on xbox.com, it may have been becuse i was using win2000 and not winxp, that was the main reason why i got rid of norton,

    Yeah first thing i do is wipe off norton on any computer it comes on :)
    You will also need a firewall and anti-spyware too.
