I can get onto most major sites, for EG bing or google home pages and ask questions, but i cant get to any of the separate reply sites... it's as if WinXP itself has a hitch somewhere..

I have tried Firefox IE and Yahoo, all are effected...

Secure Connection Failed Does seem to be a fairly common problem, just wish i could read the cure...

I have run my anti virus/ malware progs, and nothing found.

From what I've read online, it appears to be a Firefox issue. I would use another internet browser for the the time being such as internet explorer or Good Crome.

try this James

Google Search


When you get errors try going to google and enter the eror statement, any time I have had issues, Google triumphs

Looking at the first response in the google search yields a temporary fix, albeit with slightly reduced security.

HERE

an excerpt

you can temporarily work around the issue and turn off ocsp stapling: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named security.ssl.enable_ocsp_stapling. double-click it and change its value to false.
since this will slightly lower your security, it is important however, that after a bit of time when the issue gets resolved by the site (maybe try again in 24 hours), you go back and switch the setting to "true" again!



with another potential solution here

tried fix "A" but file security.ssl.enable_ocsp_stapling does not exist?

Will now try fix 2... Now tried fix "2" but that also advises altering the non existing file = security.ssl.enable_ocsp_stapling. ????

Thank you for your help though.

PS, I had tried google search but I couldn't (can't) open any of the sites containg the required informatiom!!!!!! dohhh.......

Hi James.
I'm wondering if the problem might be due to XP being a well out of date OS now. Are you running any anti virus programs that are out of date or not been updated?
The lack of support is quite worrying for XP now and as we know any Windows OS can be quite vulnerable to attack so firewalls and virus protection are important.
I still use XP on one machine for Car software and Radio stuff but I never connect it to the internet.

James, if you just to basic things with your PC, likes of music, photos, documents and internet why not move over to Linux, you don't need virus protection and a lot of add ons, plus most of the OS (Mint, up to the latest 18) comes with Firefox and a good mail program Thunderbird.
If you stick with XP though I'd be wary on the net if you get this sorted out. Perhaps run restore which may help.
Good luck.

It may be worth completely uninstalling Firefox and see if the problem goes away. If you decide to do this, just make sure you have any favourites are all backups up or noted.
