(pronounced as separate letters) Short for Secure Sockets Layer, a protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL uses a cryptographic system that uses two keys to encrypt data − a public key known to everyone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message. Both Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer support SSL, and many Web sites use the protocol to obtain confidential user information, such as credit card numbers.By convention, URLs that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http:.\n\nAnother protocol for transmitting data securely over the World Wide Web is Secure HTTP (S-HTTP). Whereas SSL creates a secure connection between a client and a server, over which any amount of data can be sent securely, S-HTTP is designed to transmit individual messages securely. SSL and S-HTTP, therefore, can be seen as complementary rather than competing technologies. Both protocols have been approved by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as a standard.

You need to get SP2 for your Internet Explorer. It looks like you have not installed and downloaded the new Security updates for IE.\n\nGo to http://www.microsoft.com and click on Microsoft Updates and then install all the updates.\n\nTry this too once you are sure you are up to date:\nGo to Tools then Internet Options on your IE browser.\nClick on Content and then click on Certificates then go to Advanced. Make sure everything is checked except Client Authentification and Secure Email.\nThen click ok til you get to the Main Options Menu again.\nGo to ADVANCED and scroll ALL the way down.\nMake sure SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0 are checked.\nGo to main menu again. Click on Privacy and Advanced and enable all your cookies.\n\nTell me if that works! I will check back again.\n\nEdit: Oh and you have to restart your browser.\n\nOk Crystal try this:\n\nSelect "Internet Options" from the Tools menu. \nClick on the "Privacy" tab. \nClick the "Default" button (or manually slide the bar down to "Medium") under "Settings". \nClick "OK". \nThen go to Security and then Custom Level and scroll down to cookies. Make sure they are all enabled =)\n\nEdit: First you can check if you already have it installed by going to HELP above and then click on ABOUT INTERNET EXPLORER. It will say next to UPDATE VERSIONS: SP2. If it says that, then you dont need it. If it does NOT say that, then you have to go to http://www.microsoft.com and then click on Microsoft Update on the left most part of the website and then they will check your machine and let you know if you need to install it. Make sure you restart your browser, and try to go into your bank again and let me know what happens!\n\nSorry Crystal...but Im sure the sites that said you have to enable your cookies will work now. Your bank might be using a Certificate on their site that is not compatible with IE. You can try downloading http://www.mozilla.com which is a different browser. A lot of people like Firefox, so you might like it too.

127.0.0.1 is so-called localhost.\nIf you have web server installed (and properly configured!)on your computer, you can connect it (web server) through http using any browser. If not - no way.

Set your home page as http://mail.yahoo.com/. If you are using IE, go to Tools --> Internet Options... and then in the Home Page Address field enter http://mail.yahoo.com/.\n\nIf you want it to use over SSL (for higher security) then use https://mail.yahoo.com/.

You could stop using kerberos security.  That would be one change.  Or you could remove or add a device to your network that would be another change.  You could move from Novell to Microsoft another change.  You need to add more details to your question.

Clear you Internet cache (Tools->Internet Options->General->Delete Files).  Then check your security settings (Tools->Internet Options->Secuity) and set them to default.  Under Tools->Internet Options->Advanced, make sure that Use SSL 2.0 and Use SSL 3.0 are checked.  You can download and run Adaware for free, which would check for spyware.  You can also download and run AVG virus scanner for free.
