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!
The browser can't find what it wants and generates an error message.
That doesn't mean it is THE CAUSE of the error. I have yet to ever see
a message that says "your ISP is messed up right now" and 95 times out
of 100 that is the real issue I was having (be it in browsing or mail.)
