  1. Make sure your clock and timezone are correct.
  2. Hit "try again" on the page.
If no joy, use http instead of https.

What was the outcome of this?
If your clock is wrong the usual cause is a failing CMOS battery.
As you're using XP I assume it's an older computer.

No, it's not that old. Came with Windows 7. I just downgraded to XP Pro. Dell was generous enough to give me drivers for it, so I wasn't complaining.

It turns out that yesterday when I checked the calender I must have messed up the month. I don't recall hitting apply but then I can't really tell you what I had for breakfast yesterday either. :think: Must be getting old. :lol:

UPDATE: It turns out that the time settings were for the wrong time zone. My Xp disk does not ask me anything when it loads and I just had to re-install the system due to a bad dual boot experience with Linux. I just forgot to change it. My Bad :mrgreen:

:thumbup: Your very welcome. And your right. It's hard to get responses sometimes. Folk get busy I guess. I always try to see what's going on if I can but sometimes I just check my posts and leave.
