CANNOT ACCESS SECURE WEB SITES

A

ALAN

Help!
I am running a dual boot system with Win 2000 and Linux ,
with an NTL broadband web connection. I have three
problems which might be related, or not.
1)I have three browsers installed in Windows; Explorer,
Opera, and Firefox. Recently I found that none of these
would allow me to access secure sites. With Mozilla in the
Linux OS I have no such problem. This seems to point to a
problem with Win2K.
2) when I try to access Microsoft update I get an error
message (0x800C0005), and can't proceed.
3)I have tried to re-install Win2K but get the
message, 'there are incomplete program
installations;installation cannot proceed', but the
program that is supposed to run on re-boot to solve the
problem doesn't run.
Symantec AV gives a clear bill of health.
Any suggestions?
