Computer Email Tips

Maybe you can help me with this problem. Whenever I try to go on a site that requires secure log-in, eg. bank, ebay etc. I get a security warning pop-up saying there is a problem with the sites security certificate. It says "the security certificate has expired or is not yet valid" and gives me options to continue yes/no or view certificate. I am operating Windows ME and IE 6, all updated and I also run AVG free anti-virus and spybot regularly. I have searched the web for answers to this and also asked several PPL including my bank's IT helpline. I have done everything suggested but still get the warning!


Answer:
After thinking about this for a while, I wasn't sure that I had any particularly great solution to propose. My standard response would be to check the security preferences of the Web browser and to try visiting one or more of the sites using a different browser like Firefox.
In a private dialog, however, I was pleased to hear that the chap who sent in this question figured out the problem on his own, and it's a beauty:
Dave, just so you know, I've figured out my problem with the expired or not yet valid security certificates: the date on my computer was set wrong and it thought I was years in the past! Once I fixed the date and time, all of these problems vanished.

The Indian Stock Market is going through a crucial phase. Only time will tell how things going to change. Buy only Very good stocks in swing trade and exit when alarm bell rings.

Gold Demand

The demand for Gold is steadily rising. The only known liquid investment which appreciates in time is nothing but Gold. Buy Physical or Gold mutual funds and forget for quite some time. Would be surprised to see the result in few years.

Raksha Bandhan

VADODARA: Despite a 40 per cent rise in the prices of diamond and gold rakhis this year, city jewellers have not witnessed any slump in their sales, as compared to last year.

Owner of Navin Jewellers in Alkapuri area of the city, Navin Soni said that owing to unprecedented rise in the prices of gold and diamonds due to crisis created in the international market, the diamonds and gold rakhis have become costlier this year.

Last year, the diamond rakhis were priced between Rs 6,000 and Rs 30,000, this year, they are available between Rs 10,000 and Rs 50,000 and even upwards, Soni said.

The Rs 50,000-worth rakhi is made of 14.7 grams of gold, one carat of ruby stone and 1.29 carat of diamond tied to a silk thread with coloured stones and pearls on it.
"Diamond rakhi is a craze among higher middle class and wealthy people," he said.

Ashwin Chokshi of Narayan Jewellers said, "These rakhis are made as per the requirements of women customers."

"Rakhi with different messages, including elimination of corruption, fight against terrorism, are in demand."

Chokshi said, "These rakhis could be worn as a bracelet or a pendant in a gold chain."

The raksha bandhan festival, which is being celebrated today, involves the tying of a rakhi (sacred thread) by a sister on her brother's wrist. This symbolizes the sister's love and prayers for her brother's well-being, and the brother's lifelong vow to protect her.
