Meghan, don't type in all caps it's considered rude and shouting and some
won't read messages typed this way.
As regards to your problem, is this of any assistance:


In Internet Explorer -
1. Tools > Internet Options > Advanced
2. Scroll down to the Security Settings.
3. Make sure that the two boxes are checked that say
"Enable SSL 2" or "Enable SSL 3".
Try your secure sites.

Another thing you can try is:

Go to start/run
Type in: regsvr32 softpub.dll
