I am running Windows XPsp2; connect to the internet with Earthlink dial-up;
have Norton security. During the week the computer stopped connecting to
secure sites. Earthlink says it is a problem with my browser. How do I fix
this?

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
Press Enter or click OK

struggling for 4 days to solve the same problem but your advice re. going to
start/run etc. worked immediately - Thankyou!
