According to IE7 every major web site from Google to ATT has let it's security certificate lapse. My bank's in there, too. How does one turn this nag off? The only setting I can find in security is enabling
"Don't prompt for client certificate selection when no certificate or only one exists.". A laudable overcomplication of the process using obfuscatory double negatives ..which doesn't address the issue of the world's security certificates being out of date, which each time brings up a threatening pink page ordering not to go there.
"
I find suggestions on what to do with my own certificate if it comes up as out of date (I would like to tell MS what to do with theirs, but again..never mind). I can't find the setting which says just go away and leave me alone in perpetuity. There must be one. Please. Tell me I don't have to click through dire warnings to pay my PG&E bill again.
Quoth IE7 on the issues of a) my bank account b) my retirement broker c) my health plan and c)gmail and d) California's largest health insurer where I have my company plan:
"If you choose to ignore this error and continue, do not enter private information into the website. "
Umhhhhh..It's like, you know, dude, the largest bank in the US. What do you mean don't give them my personal information. They've got, like you know, my bank account, . They alread have it.
Is this MS blackmailling every web host in the country to pay them protection money or something?
