Problem
It occurs when the user tries to access a website with IE7 when the SSL certificate has been revoked. This message appears:
"There is a problem with this website's security certificate / This organisation's certificate has been revoked."
We recommend that you close this webpage and do not continue to this website.
Cause
- The certificate validation is by default turned on IE7.It is not on IE 6.The user must manually enable the certificate validation.
- This organization's certificate has been revoked.
- Security certificate problems may indicate an attempt to fool you or intercept any data you send to the server.
Resolution
Revocation of a certificate cannot be reversed. To resolve this problem, generate a new certificate signing request (CSR) file and reissue in your MySSL account. Once the replacement certificate is installed, the message will no longer appear.
