I've been getting this message at the bottom of my screen with practically every click today - and often without a click. It's not happening on any other website.

'Internet explorer blocked this website from displaying content with security certificate errors'.

There's a button on the message that reads 'Show Content', but clicking it doesn't tell you anything - it just takes you to AnswerBank.

Funny, stopped doing it now. Suggest logging off the site, then come back again.

It's caused by an advert running on the site with an incorrect time-stamp on their advert, Ab Editor is on the case! ☺

When I googled it one of the answers mentioned a time/date error.

Does it offer you the chance to install a certificate?

As the UK changes the default timezones for all PC's, i.e GMT > BST > GMT, then at sometime in the year the timestamp for the advert is out of sync with the current time, hence the issues as reported... It's up to the advertising hosting server to notice & sort out.
