Default Internet Security Warning

I d/l the latest security downloads from windows update yesterday - now I'm
getting a pop-up box on a reoccuring basis - several times a session that
says the following.
Internet Security Warning
The server you are connedted to is using a security certificate that could
not be verified. The certificate's CN name does not matech the passed value.
Do you want to continue using this server?

It's a pita and I'm suspecting its because of one of the windows security
updates behind it.

XP SP3

What does your ISP/Email Provider say about this?
If you uninstall all of the updates you installed - does the problem
disappear?
If you install the updates again - but this time one at a time with reboots
and tests in-between, which one causes the problem?
