SSL certificate warning on all sites

Hi

My dads PC (Windows XP), which my neice and nephew use, always displays the
SSL Security Alert dialog when viewing secure (https) sites. This happens
with hotmail and gmail, which work fine on my PC.

I am guessing the kids have done something to make it happen.

I have tried some obvious things, but it still happens. This happens for
all of the users.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to fix it?

Thanks

Darren

"Enable..."
Click on "Clear SSL" under Certificates, and click on "OK."

button - remove all checkmarks and settings unless actually required to use
a proxy and close the window

Under Browsing put a checkmark into or remove the checkmark from "Enable
