Shortly after upgrading to SM 2.26, I began to experience SM-generated
'Untrusted Connection' messages for the bulk of the websites I visit.
Installing SM 2.26.1 did NOT remedy this problem.
About six weeks ago, someone raised the 'Untrusted Connection' issue about a
particular site. The comments made to that query do not seem to fit my
situation.
The problem is getting worse and SM now won't let me install a
'couponprinter.exe' add-on. I assume - but don't actually know enough about SM
and certificate issues to make a knowledgeable judgement - that somehow the
certificate data base file on my machine is gotten corrupted somehow.
Can anyone explain what has caused this problem? Is there a bug in SM
2.26/2.26.1?
More important, can someone give me some step-by-step instructions on how to fix
this problem?
Could the problem be fixed by simply copying the relevant certificate file from
a working PC? I have SM 2.24 running satisfactorily on another PC. What is the
name of the file I would need to copy and substitute on the PC running SM 2.26.1
In case it is relevant, I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2014 as my security
software but I don't think that is the problem as all of the 'Untrusted
Connection' messages seem to be SM-generated.
Thanks, in advance, for any and all assistance.
Henrik,
In Kaspersky, I had to UNcheck the HTTPS checkbox. It completely balked
access to any HTTPS sites. It is most assuredly a KIS bug, at least on
the Mac version.
And to be more specific, if I let KIS check HTTPS connections, Safari and
Firefox can access the sites fine, but SeaMonkey returns "SSL peer rejected a .
handshake message for unacceptable content." I think that KIS is fiddling with
things and causing SM to have trouble.
What version of KIS do you refer to? I have KIS 2014 and I can not find any
HTTPS check box. I am also really surprised that the problem I am experiencing
could be caused by KIS as all of error messages received indicate they are
generated by SM 2.26.1. Help!
I'm using KIS for Mac v1.4.0.1.46a.b.c.d. The setting of which I speak
is found at Preferences | Protection | Web Anti-Virus | Check secure
connections (HTTPS).
Since KIS does monitor HTTP and HTTPS traffic, it's not a surprise that
it can get in the way of what the browser sees.
