Chrome or firefox don't trust gmail

3

On my laptop in Chrome v 16.0.912.63 m I keep getting the following screen whenever I try to go to gmail:

chrome

In firefox, I get a similar message but it allows me to add a security exception and go on. This laptop has had some virus issues, but mbam has been run several times and I don't seem to have any other issues besides this one. I'm also using a newly created profile. Also, my laptop is the only one having issues on my network, everything else is working fine.

So, what could be causing this issue?

Check your clock - i'd guess that its set to the wrong time, date or year, and as such your browsers believe the certs have expired

1Its happened to me before. I'd also suggest removing the battery and unplugging the laptop, and leaving for a while, then rebooting. If the time is wrong again, you will need to change your cmos battery – Journeyman Geek – 2012-01-06T04:12:36.257
