    Sorry I couldn't reply sooner but Hubby was not well and had to sort him, he is ok now.

    All other sites were working. Thanks for your kind reply. He found something that told him to go to options etc somewhere and it said check SSL & TLS are ticked TLS wasnt and he ticked it, FB & Twitter are both now working thank you.
    I dont know what SSL & TLS are though so hope he has done the right thing and it wont mess anything else up.

    Thank you again,

    Same here. I started having problems with fb last night, and twitter this morning. When I try to access either of them I get a 'browser unable to make a secure connection with this site' message, and have been unable to find any way around it.
