Browser security alerts affected

Viruses and worms

Hi
Initially I am suspicious because my clock and calendar run too slow, then stop. The logs were all run today but will show date as 24/01/2015. This happened last time I had to come to you guys for help. Then when using Firefox Browser I get this :

"[i]This Connection is Untrusted

You have asked Firefox to connect securely to ad-emea.doubleclick.net, but we can’t confirm that your connection is secure.

Normally, when you try……
AdChoice on box
From Firefox

Well, this is embarrassing.

Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page.

You can try:

Removing one or more tabs that you think may be causing the problem
Starting an entirely new browsing session

This Connection is Untrusted

You have asked Firefox to connect securely to uk-mg42.mail.yahoo.com, but we can’t confirm that your connection is secure.

Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site’s identity can’t be verified.
What Should I Do?

If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn’t continue.

This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate[/i]".

And I get similar when using Google. I regularly run malwarebytes and AIS.

Help would be much appreciated

Laptop is slow, and then freezes, even date won’t change! I will run OTL on desk top now, am running all initial scans on laptop currently.
You guys are amazing’

I remember because the process of changing the cmos on this machine is really hard, when I looked into it, soIi know I didn’t do it then, and since your fix it has been fine until now. However I suppose it could be that this time it is the cmos …

That is a typical symptom of a failing CMOS battery and if the system time is wrong then some security certificates will appear to have the wrong date on
