Forum Rules

When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

If you have not received help after three days, please post a link to your topic HERE.

One thing that has been happening a few times though now is when I am logging onto facebook i get the certificate error and asks me if i want to go back to the previous page or continue(not recommended). If i click the continue i get a page that tells me I do not have permission to access this website or domain or something like that. and my adress bar goes red.

This is IE 9

The webpage cannot be found

HTTP 400
Most likely causes:
•There might be a typing error in the address.
•If you clicked on a link, it may be out of date.

What you can try:

Retype the address.

Go back to the previous page.

Go to and look for the information you want.

More information

and this is from chrome and firefox

Invalid URL

The requested URL "/battlepirates/?ref=bookmarks&fb_source=bookmarks_apps&fb_bmpos=1_", is invalid.
Reference #9.5ce34cae.1316738847.1a96c1b8

The error is listen on the tab for the webpage. You know how you can open multiple tabs on the webpage? the error is listed there. And it doesnt happen all the time.

It's not even giving me the certificate error anymore, it's randomly working and randomly not working.. usually it changes over time. Like right now for instance its saying HTTP 400 bad request on the tab when i click any facebook game.
looks like this
