Question by Etni: how do you turn off the freaking IE bar “blocked site from displaying content with security certificate errors?
My little brother was trying to make a facebook and it wouldn’t work because the information bar would come down saying: “To help protect your security, IE has blocked thus web site from displaying content with security certificate errors”. I tried going to tools, internet options, security, custom levels, and enabling the active X prompts like Microsoft.com said. But it didn’t work at all.
I think its because the content is blocked do to security certificate errors, not because of blocked active X content. I can’t turn of the Security Certificate Error page either. Its sooooo annoying. People keep telling me to screw IE and get Firefox but I can’t.
People also say I shouldn’t disable the security certificate page redirect because the sites aren’t safe. Well if Google, Verizon, Yahoo, LiveJournal, Facebook, YouTube, Ask, Hotmail, Twitter, and Hulu aren’t safe than 99% of the world has a big problem.
Any help? It’s getting on my nerves.

Most common reason for such security certificate error is that the certificates are valid for a certain period of time, and if your computer’s date is set to other than the current date or correct date, there are high chances that you will get this warning. So the first thing to check when you receive such error is to check your computer’s date and time settings.
