I am unable to connect to both Google and Youtube. Every time I try to go to those sites I receive this error message:

Secure Connection Failed

The connection to www.google.com was interrupted while the page was loading.

This happened suddenly last night and without changing any settings or using any add-ons. This is also happening on another web browser that I have. Is there any way to fix or bypass this error?

The problem has fixed itself, both sites are now working. Don't know how but it did.

Might have been a corrupted file that was replaced.
