Hi Paul, are they all the code SEC_ERROR_OCSP_FUTURE_RESPONSE?

That suggests your Windows system clock may no longer be correct. Could you check that (right-click the time/date section of the Windows Taskbar and call up "Adjust date/time").

Hi jscher2000

Excellent! Thanks, but let me now add some more info because your solution needs me to describe a different but apparently related problem.

Yes, even before looking, I knew the clock would be wrong because it has been playing up. So I can adjust the time. However, I've been having trouble with the clock for over a month. If I set the region and time to both adjust automatically, the region sets itself to a South American region that is -4 GMT. But on random occasions, the clock then shows the wrong time until I correct it (and this keeps happening). If I set the region to Atlantic time, also -4 GMT, this also causes the clock to randomly go to the wrong time. I live in the Dominican Republic which is -4 GMT now, -5 GMT in northern summer.

Hi again jscher2000

Just to confirm, yes, the time was the problem. Resetting it has fixed the web access issue.

As to the south american timezone, it is Georgetown, La Paz (etc.), which probably doesn't much matter but the time changes do.

I guess it could be an internet service problem. Ever since I found the time going out of sync, I tied using the time settings to sync time and date. but it wouldn't ever sync. It just kept trying to connect to the time server, forever. However, right now, for the first time in more than a month, the time did sync itself immediately and clicking on sync also worked instantly.

Sounds good for now. Hopefully it won't recur??
