SSL error...invalid certificate in Google Chrome

bustacap22 · 27 Mar 2013

A few days ago, was able to access PC Performance site searching for components. Ate dinner, got online to the site again and boom. BIG RED page stating the sites has invalid certificate. I google search and many post to check the date. My date is correct and current. This is the only site so far thats giving me the ssl error. Windows 7 is updated.

Also, tried to access PC Performance site on my laptop. Using Internet Explorer 10 and same thing came up. IE stating the SSL certificate error. Laptop doesnt have Google Chrome. Confused here.....Thoughts on this...Thanks.

Yes, I did see that I can click proceed anyways but I havent. This is a new build about 2 weeks old and I am just overly cautious...I am more looking at the statement that says "if you havent seen this before...STRONGLY suggest not accessing it"

Also, any thoughts in how your able to access site while 3 PC's that I have is showing same issue and also my friends PC who lives 4 cities away?????? Just looking for some logic here. Thanks.

Your saying that this is a new website? It's probably just the website has not been set up yet as a trusted site.

No its not a new website....I have used this site in the past..purchased components as well most recently last week via: Paypal. I was able to access site without SSL error as of yesterday, then all of a sudden NO GO...So yes, PC Performance site has been here a while now...

I have been reading reviews on it and they all seem to be great. But there was one or two who where saying they had bad mouthed them over the internet. Maybe the License has expired. Leave it for a day or two to see if it goes away. But the fact that is there for a while seems to be all good, so does not seem to be a Hacker or attacker. To me I would think it was safe. But just to be sure don't buy anything for a day or so and see what happens.
Maybe email to the website and ask them has there license expired.
