Unable to enter various websites

Wayne's_Woes

There are several websites I have tried to get into and I get this message. One of These is Sunvil Travel who I have used previously to book holidays and until a week ago I had no problem getting into it. This error message also appears on many other website I am trying to enter. What is the reason this is suddenly happened and can I rectify. I have tried running Windows Network Diagnostics but it did not find any reason


This site can’t provide a secure connection

goo.gl sent an invalid response.
Try running Windows Network Diagnostics.
ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

Works ok for me, I know it doesnt provide an answer as to why your getting the issue. Maybe try reinstalling Chrome.

Try it with another browser-that will tell you if it's a Chrome issue.
Check the date and time on your Windows device are correct.
Clear your cache and cookies.
Disable any browser extensions one at a time to see if one is blocking these sites.
My best guess is no. 2.

Edit: As you've mentioned this happens on various machines / devices, I'd suggest its more likely an ISP related issue so a router / modem reboot will probably be more use than clearing SSL cache

These errors are a pain as there are various causes. A few things you could try;

Clear SSL cache
Control Panel > Internet Options > Content Tab > Clear SSL state

Reboot modem / router (could also be ISP issue)

To whom are you addressing that comment?

There are several sites that offer certificate checking.

This link will show the results from one of those for a domain you mentioned. It shows some possibly trivial issues found.

A summary of some...

The server does not support Forward Secrecy with the reference browsers. MORE INFO »

Browsers are certainly getting more picky about SSL these days so maybe that is why you are seeing complaints.

I'm using Opera these days and it doesn't throw a wobbly on that domain.

It is not browsers it is Google, they have decided that if a site does not have an SSL cert then it will throw up errors and will give priority indexing to sites using SSL certs.
