Win 95- SECURITY ALERT

I am now receiving SECURITY ALERT messages as I go to routine websites.

Sorry for the repetition.

I have recently reinstalled Win 95, AOL, and Compuserve. I connect ok with both ISPs. Most websites I use produce a SECURITY ALERT message with a padlock/key symbol.

green check- The security certificate is form a trusted certifying authority.

yellow "!"- The security certificate has expired or is not yet valid.

green check- The security certificate matches the name of the page you are trying to view.

YES --- NO --- VIEW CERTIFICATE
-------------------

I have gone to control panel - internet options- security- and moved the slider to both Medium-Low and to Low without helping.

Any ideas as to how to do away with this SECURITY ALERT message? I never used to receive them.

I thank you.
