IE7 Cannot Access Secure Websites

IE7- after MS update in Feb, system stopped allowing me access to secure websites. I have to use my laptop IE6 to pay bills, access work website, etc. How can I get IE7 to work? I did a system restore to the day before the update and IE7 worked. But update since then has stopped secure access again. Unchecking addins allows IE7 to work with regular sites. Help please.

Have you removed IE7 and tried IE6 to see what happens?

There are two typical ways to go back to IE6. One is to find IE7 in the add/remove programs and remove it there, but sometimes it does not show up there so then you can try the system restore again but in safemode only.
