Anyone Seeing Adsense Security Certificate Errors?

BettyM · 02-09-2012, 05:44 PM

In IE 8 on several of my Adsense sites, I am getting Internet Explorer has blocked this website from dispalying content with security certificate errors. If I remove Adsense, I don't have the error. Firefox and Safari are fine.

Anyone else noticing this lately? Anyone know a solution?

I run in an old browser in Win XP to check my Adsense site code compatibility. This security certificate problem only happens on my Win XP in IE 8.

Kept on looking for a solution and found:

Internet explorer has blocked this website from displaying content - Microsoft Answers

<<Tip: While Root Certificate updates are installed automatically (via Automatic Update) in Vista & Win7, WinXP users must check for & install these updates manually. Very generally speaking, a Root Certificate update is released every 3-4 months>>

You HAVE to look for the Root Certificate update in Custom windows update to fix the problem. Visitors to your adsense sites who don't know to manually update (I didn't know) will hear a sound and see an error. Vistiors with older browsers on XP computers may leave immediately which may decrease your Adsense "time on site" plus click through rate.

If anyone knows any solution to workaround the certificate error without telling visitors to update, would love to know the trick.
