IE 9 Certificate Errors
I have a fresh install of Windows 7 Enterprise with IE 9. All updates have been done. I am trying to navigate to an SSL web page that runs under a self-signed cert. For a long and valid list of reasons this is not going to change. In the past (e.g. IE 8) I would get a certificate warning page after which I could click on "Continue to this website" and it would take me to the login page. In trying this in IE 9, after clicking past the certificate warning all I get is "Internet Explorer cannot display the page". No opportunity to view the certificate, or continue to the page.. nada, it just refuses to serve up the page. I have: - added the site to my Trusted Sites list - checked and ensured that SSL and TLS are all enabled. - repeatedly re-set IE to defaults - tried uninstalling update #KB2585542 (found this on a forum post somewhere) - searched in vain for any sort of Event Log entry This is beyond frustrating. Not only is IE 9 arbitrarily deciding what I can and cannot browse to but it isn't offering up any sort of way to troubleshoot / mitigate what is happening. I'd appreciate any suggestions on how I can get past the warning and view the page in question. Thanks Don

Are you able to test with another browser than IE and see if it works?Blog: www.danielclasson.com/blog | LinkedIn: Daniel Classon | Twitter: @danielclasson

If it is possbile, to down the security level and try again. Do you have the certificate of the website? Is there one red X line on the web page, you may click continue for test.Ivan-Liu TechNet Community Support
