I am trying to get into a site that i have to log into. It will not let me. I have checked the password and reset it , but it has a lock at the top beside the refresh button. when I click the lock it has info about a cirtificate??

I have Ie7 and this bothers me.

I have had trouble navigating to some websites with the new IE 7. CVS Pharmacy website was one in particular. I usually order prescription refills through that website. I couldn't even access CVS's website with IE 7. I rolled back to IE 6 and have had no further problems. If this website you are attempting to access is one you access frequently, you might consider doing the same.

To roll back to IE 6, go into Control Panel, then click Add / Delete Software. Scroll down till you find IE 7 and tell it to delete it. This will automatically roll you back to IE 6. This works if you are still using Windows XP. If you have upgraded to or are using Windows Vista, I can't help you there.

I use IE7 and have never run into any problems. I have seen the lock next to refresh but that is just telling you the site is secure. It might be your firewall , or you phishing filter. check them both and make sure. also if firefox is a good web browser to use IE7 is just like it.
