I am running XP(sp3) and using PM 25.8.1.
Today, I am having problems with some common websites such as duckduckgo.com and yandex.com and mail.yandex.com
I get the following message:
Secure connection failed. An error occurred during the connection to duckduckgo.com.
The OCSP response contains out of date information.
(error code: sec_error_ocsp_old_response).
IE 8 will open duckduckgo.com correctly. Yandex.com and mail.yandex.com open, but their websites are not displayed correctly and there is a note that IE has blocked content because of security certificate errors.
Firefox does the same as PM.
Please explain what this problem means and how to fix it if it is within my control.
Thank you

Please check your clock and time zone. If the date/time is incorrect or the time zone is incorrect, then the verification response for https verification is outside of its validity range and the browser will refuse the connection.

Re: error message on common websites
That was the problem.
The websites are now opening correctly.
Thanks so much for the help and Merry Christmas.
