Windows 7 upgrade of XP Pro with IE 8 and getting Certificate Erro

J

Jason Wilson

My PC was recently upgraded from XP Pro with Windows 7 Pro and I also had IE
running on my machine under XP. now when I browse to many sites I am getting
a certificate warning message in IE. I can choose to continue on to the site
(even though it says that is not recommended.). But this is VERY ANNOYING!
Pleas help! I have tried adjusting many different IE settings, and verified
the date-time is correct on my PC. This is happening on valid web sites. So
far not very happy with this upgrade!

Below is the error message I am seeing in IE
