Here's the deal: I've searched for this in the support forum. I've done what has been suggested. None of it's working.

For the last few months, I was only receiving the SSL error from my laptop (Windows 7) but am now getting the same error on my older computer, running Windows XP. The only site that gives me this error is Facebook, and I'm receiving this error on Firefox 27, IE 8, & whatever the latest version of Chrome happens to be now.

Any suggestions? I'm getting pretty fed up with this.

Are you using a direct connection?

See also "Firefox connection settings":

Also make sure that your security software isn't intercepting and monitoring secure connections.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
