While I understand that Symantec and Verisign are looking into the solution and have offered a new certificate, which I have downloaded and installed, it does not solve the problem. I had to uncheck the "check the certificate" box to get my computer back to speed.

I think it is unbelievable that Symantec who is supposed to provide protection has downloaded the problem onto my PC.

Any attempts to contact them are in vain. They cause a problem and then want to charge you to call them for the solution.

I think I will try McAfee as well.
