Secure sites won't display and Windows update server error

Guest · May 1, 2004

I've been having problems accessing secure sites using IE6.0 on a XP system since about Feb.
I have another system that allows me to use any secure sites, but I finally stopped procastinating
and I'm trying to fix this problem. First, I tried to get a windows update however, I kept getting
a server error and to try again later. Its similar to whats posted in this newsgroup, I've tried a
many of the fixes as I could, but no luck. I'm listing all the things I have tried and nee
more suggestions

Jason,
See http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers2.htm#secure_sites for a few
other possibilities.

And... not very likely to be the cause, but scan for spyware, parasites,
etc.
