- Can't Access https websites
- Posted by LeedsBoy on January 5th, 2006
A couple of days ago, not sure exactly when, my laptop stopped being able to
access secure (https) websites such as my internet banking site. Also, though
I can access ebay.co.uk, if I try to go to 'My eBay' I get an error (though
this isn't an https site). The error is the usual "The page cannot be
displayed" error.
Have tried system restore, clearing temp files and cookies. Hoping I don't
have to completely re-install windows as my recovery disk is pre-SP2 so will
wipe everything out.
I'm running Win XP Home with SP2.
Any ideas how to sort this out?
