Can't get to website becuase of Security Warning (Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead, SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN).
When I go to a business website (Arrow.com) I get this message (see question). When I look at the certificate it is from a different business's website (Digikey.com). I use both websites often.

There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connection certificates and send their own.

Thank you for your help. Yes, I am using ESET AV and will follow that lead.
One other thing - It only happens sometimes. If I reboot usually I don't have a problem.
But it comes back, yes?
Yes, after a reboot, it will work for a while. I haven't figured out what triggers ESet to later report the security risk.
You should contact ESet support.
