IE 6 on XP doesnot access secure web pages

[Guest]

Hi

I am having a problem with my XP system. I can go to most web pages but I am
unable to access web sites that are secured. All was working fine, then I
installed Norton Antivirus 2005 and now I have this problem. I have
uninstalled Norton, and I have removed my firewall - any ideas?

Cheers

Peter

Make sure your firewall is not blocking port 443. See also
