Switch on ?
It means your Internet browser is trying to connect to a site that hasn't kept its certificates up to date. Continue there at your own risk.

How can I stop this message flashing up ?
I have recently changed from Talk Talk to BT Infinity ue to poor service from Talk Talk could that be the reason ?

[Old_Geezer]

Unless the problem is weirder than I imagine you ensure your browser doesn't try to get to that site. A thought, you don't have malware or something trying to get there on startup do you. Try running Malwarebytes &

Check the date on your computer, as has already been suggested - a wrong date will trigger this message.

If your date is right, and you get it on more than one site, then there is something else causing it.

[HansUrbancka]

It is important to ensure that the date and time are correct. Security Certificates are issued for a set period of time (sometimes only 12 months) and, if your date is say just a few days behind the certificate's expiry/renewal date, you are then trying to enter the site on a date that the Certificate has expired. ....I hope my comments make sense.!!

However, as indicated by Tuvok, if date and time are correct, there is something else wrong. Which in my opinion is something haywire with the site. In which case note what O_G said above..."Continue there at your own risk".

Incidentally there is another thread running along on this matter.:-
