    Working fine for me today, check your system's date/time. my other pc's BIOS battery is dead so the date/time is always 1/1/2002 when i turn it on and it throws random errors when accessing https sites, until i correct the date/time.

    • Time and date are both correct.

    Also working fine for me.

    This is the dodgy part:

    The identify of this website has been verified by Bitdefender Personal CA.Net …

    However that's not the CA we used to sign the SSL connection for this website. It should say verified by RapidSSL SHA256. Looks like your antivirus software Bitdefender is playing man-in-the-middle by decrypting all the web pages and then re-encrypting again with its own SSL key.

    Hopefully it's not malicious. You'll need to update Bitdefender by the look of it.

    • ok. Thanks Scotty!

    • I just noticed that on chrome https is scratched out. clicking on it for further info yielded the same info.

      The identify of this website has been verified by Bitdefender Personal CA.Net

      Now I'm concerned.

        If you are using Bitdefender (BD) Internet Security 2015, do these

        1) Open the Bitdefender application.
        2) Click on the Protection Button (towards left)
        3) Click on Web Protection (left-down)
        4) turn off ScanSSL.

        This is the same as the one in scotty URL above but it looks the BD interface changed.

        Hope this helped.

        • Thanks @sab2000, that sorted it out for me. And I do have to admit, I did get thrown off by the 2015 interface.
