I cannot log into
https://secure.hearstmags.com/sweeps/mar/freeforyou_11_2006_errings.cfm
to enter their sweeps. I have previously been able to open the page but now
it hangs and never opens. The bottom has a pad lock and when I click on it ,
it comes up with this " This type of program does not have a security
certificate " I went to tools , internet options and put it on trusted sites.
I also went to content and enabled content advisor. What else can I do. I
appreciate any help . Thank you.
 
I take it you can use other secure (https://) sites okay? (like banking and
shopping checkouts?)

Four things to try:

1. Clear your TIF and History completely:

2. Check your Cookies folder and delete any cookies that relate to the
sites in question.

3. Check your Hosts file as per this article:

More info on the Hosts file:

4. Got to a Command prompt (Start...Programs...Accessories) and type in:

ipconfig /flushdns

Hit Enter.
