SSL Certificate Error In Windows NT Family Browsers

Asked By Meagan Williams 20 points N/A Posted on - 07/22/2016

There are still a few websites that prefer windows based browsers as they have been configured for the same. When visiting these websites using internet explorer we often get error showing security certificates not validated or similar. These are not always genuine errors and are often generated by client side problems. If so how can it be fixed?
