Solve : Google, Bing and Yahoo stopped by my clock.?

Answer»

Google, Bing and Yahoo and other sites with SSL were blocked by my BROWSER. And not just FireFox and CHROME. Even Opera.
But I was in XP, so I boot into Windows 7 and expect to see all OK. No Joy!

But at least Windows 7 gave a better explanation. It blamed my click.
A problem with the clock makes the SSL** invalid.
What? My clock? A virus scan and a MALWARE check shows nothing significant. a PUP removed, but no FIX.
(**SSL is a security Certificate .)
Wait. It is not the clock.It is the calendar.
Thirsty days off! So I fixed in BIOS. Problem gone.
Has this ever happened to you? That's totally normal operation - The SSL certificates are date limited, for example Google's current certificate was issued on the 26th of August and is valid until November, if your clock was set to before this the certificate would APPEAR to be invalid and the browser would quite rightly reject it.So was it blocked by your clik...or your clock ? ?Blocked by the Clock!
As camerongray says, the SSL will fail if the clock is way behind.

The clock was 30 days in the past.

From this, we conclude time travel will not be possible until the SSL is revised to allow us to go back in time.

Ran into this with a system with a weak CMOS battery before where the year went to like 2054 and websites would complain to connect etc for certain sites with certificates and SSL connections etc. Until I got a replacement 2032 battery I would have to set the date/time to correct to fix this after each boot.

Ops.
Maybe a click ticked the clock.
Or else it could be the CMOS cell.

A quick checks shows this to be a common issue.

My computer keeps giving me certificate errors on every website I go to
Besides the battery, some other ideas were given. Such as nmalware.

For me, the problem u has not come back.
