  1. 1) Scanned for viruses. Found and deleted: (setup(2).exe), (PlayItAll-setup-win32-8.exe), (InstallationManager.exe)
#2) Deleting “cert8.db”: Document and Settings / Administrator / Application Data / Mozilla / Firefox / profiles / sl6vngid.default / (delete) cert8.db / Restart computer…. 
  1. 3) Change browser.ssl integer “2” to “1”: Firefox / about:config / “This might void your warranty” / “I’ll be careful, promise” / enter “browser.ssl_override_behavior” / Delete “2” in the “Enter integer value” box and enter “1” / OK / Exit Firefox / restart Computer….

hello, what security program are you using on your computer & what error code is showing up on the error page under technical details?

Hey pataj, I removed your email from your post, there are some people who search websites, especially popular ones like this, just for email addresses so they can spam them. You should get an email whenever somebody replies to this post, though.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate has expired. The certificate will not be valid until 3/19/2013 4:00 PM. The current time is 1/3/2002 5:01 PM.

(Error code: sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate)

Phillip! You are great! All this problem must have started when I changed the battery on my mother board or just ignored the date somehow. After days of cleaning the registry, virus check, file sorting, defragmanting, deleting programs... the problem was oh so simple. Now everything is working. Thanks.
