    What alerts? Have you considered you might have a malware issue?

    the window says (security alert) "Information you exchange with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. However, there is a problem with the site's security certificate." Do you want to proceed?. It does that with mail or most sites i go to, and i posted in malware that i restored my computer from disc and i think it was you that said i shouldnt have a malware problem go to software and post..so i dunno what to do...

    Then it sounds like you have some kind of protection software that is giving you those messages. If it only happens with one browser, then it is an add-on in that browser. IF all are affected, it is probably some software you have installed.

    You posted under a different user name. This creates confusion when you log in with two names. You should abandon one so that we can delete that account. I was assuming you did a complete format and install, yes?

    yeah, sorry about the different username...i couldnt remember my old username and i couldnt recieve any email from this site to get it or my password. but after i made the new acct. i remembered my username....and when i bought this computer best buy told me that they would make a restore disc for me and i told them to go ahead...there are 4 discs and i only had to use one of them..it didnt ask me to use any of the rest of them....i did this once before without any problems
