Problems accessing secure sites
First go to IE help, about and make sure that you are showing the correct
cipher strength. If you are showing zero cipher strength, search for and
run IE501DOM.EXE which should, hopefully, reinstall the 128 bit encryption
pack.
Also, these links may be of help:
Cipher Strength Appears as 0 Bit in Internet Explorer

Cannot Install the Internet Explorer High Encryption Pack (Q303823)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q303823
Older versions of IE may need to upgrade to 128bit encryption:

If you have been to the page before, you might simply have a cache, or
cookie problem. Search out and delete any cookies that may be related to the
problem pages. Shut down all programmes and boot into DOS if you are using
Windows 95 or 98. If using Windows ME use an appropriate disc to access DOS.
Run the following commands from the windows directory, typically
c:\windows\>
smartdrv
deltree history
deltree tempor~1
Reboot using ctrl, alt, del. If using Windows ME, remember to remove the
boot floppy from the drive.
Windows 2000 users will have to log in as Administrator to be able to delete
the folders in question directly from within Windows Explorer. Windows XP
users will use the same procedure.
NOTE:
Different operating systems use different paths to the history, temporary
internet files and cookies folders. Check your system to make sure that you
are using the correct path for your machine. For example, you may find your
folders are located at ...\documents and settings\{identity}\{dir} or
similar.
If still no joy, have a look at these links:
