Also possibly check your browser security and firewall settings, you may be holding back some identification the site requires for verification. You should allow cookies (browser security options) plus HTTP_REFERER and HTTP_ADDRESS header data (firewall anonymisation settings).

What is your cipher strength? The sites may have increased it to 128 bits.
Help --> About Internet Explorer
You may need an upgrade.

Internet Explorer has been at 128 bit since 5.01, it was offered as an update for that version, then included with version 5.5 onwards as part of the software.

If you have a router, reset it. Everything will work just fine after that :)

Doc: I don't have a router but tried accessing secure site www.billing.microsoft.com {which is also the site tech help uses to check if you can access secure sites) without using my firewall and still had the same problem. I then used the regsvr32 command which registers the dll files registering the dlls that i knew was needed to access secure websites well it worked partially when I tried registering the Advapi32.dll I received the following message - (DllRegisterServer may not be exported, or a corrupt version of Advapi32.dll may be in memory. Consider using PView to detect and remove it.}- i tried again to access the site and couldn't BUT when I did the search on billing.microsoft and then clicked on the link on the search page i was able to access the secure site?? I also reread Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 261328 about Cipher Strength and noticed that Advapi32.dll requires version 4.90.0.3000 or greater I have version 4.80.1675 do you know where i can get the latest version?

Try using Firefox. http://www.mozilla.org
I have the same problem and Firefox loads secure sites fine.
A clean install of windows will probably fix the problem but i dont want to go there. |
