Default Can't check Hotmail and Yahoo mails.

Right.. so I want to check my email on yahoo and hotmail but when I click "sign in" it doesn't let me into the yahoo inbox.. instead, I get "page cannot be displayed" message. Also, whenever I go to a 'secure' site the page cannot be displayed as well... Please Help. Thanks

1.) Make sure your system clock is correct.

2.) See if another browser works, that would help pinpoint the prob.

if you have a dial-up connection it could be your internet connect is just very weakor if you have a firewall turned on it can slow it down!

You cannot log onto a secure server if your system clock is incorrect.
