HEY I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY SISTERS COMPUTER. I MADE SURE
THE INTERNET SECURITY WAS SET UP TO ACCEPT ALL COOKIES BUT THAT STILL
DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. IF ANYONE HAS AN IDEA HELP ME OUT

Greetings Nick,

First, double-check that her computer's clock has been set properly -- just double-click the
clock in the corner of the screen and verify that the date is correct.

Secondly, have you tried deleting her Internet Explorer cache and cookies? To do
so, open Internet Explorer, click the Tools menu, then Internet Options, then click the
Delete Files button,and when that's complete click the Delete Cookies button.

Then click the Content tab, click Clear SSL State, and click OK.

After all this, try again.
