cannot access secure sites

Check your date is correct.

Any changes to your system?

How are you connecting to the internet?

One of the most common problems for this is that the security strength has not been set to the required 128bit which most secure sites now need.

In internet explorer go to help > about internet explorer
It should say cipher strength: 128 bit, if it says anything less than this then you are going to have to install the internet explorer security update patch which can be found on their download site.

Hope this helps
