Please help! I cannot log onto secure sites

I reciently got ATT&T dsl service.
The modem is 2wire360
I have internet options set to allow me to acess https.
Also, Avira antivirus cannot up date.

So caling Att&t has not helped.
My guess is the firewall....
Thanxx

 

Hi Max, what FW are you using?

 

I'm using the fire wall that is in the 2wire360 modem

 

Well, Max, I would suggest a new FW. Check out what MG has on the freebie list; PCTools is one good one, but if you have the same problem with a new FW, then it may be something else... I am sure someone with more knowledge of this situation will be along ..

I am one that doesn't like to use Windows FW, I do prefer a 3rd party one.. Has done wonders for mine.. Best fo Luck to ya.

 

Hey Max TeeCee is right but you might try here for some answers on the 2wire http://support.2wire.com/?page=search&text=+I+cannot+log+onto+secure+sites&cat=&sort=rel Hope it's what you're looking for?

the modem and firewall are ok.
i was able to get full acess with a borrowed computer.

before i got the dsl sv, (dec 15, 09) i would go to a hot spot
to get on the net and i had no probles of any kind.
????????????????/

 

What OS are you using?

If other computer works it menas that the Modem/Router and the connection are OK.

It does not mean that the software Firewall on your computer is.

I can not give you more info since you info is not helping. :confused

Pull yourself together and explain what is that you have there. :-D

 

What version of IE? I ran into this exact problem last fall with somebody who had just upgraded to IE8, he couldn't get to his investment site.
Uninstalling IE8 fixed the problem immediately.
But since then I've learned how to tweak the settings in IE8 to fix this.
So, what version?
