    Hello,

    Please help me with the following problem:

    1) Installing Skype (Windows Vista Home Basic)
    2) Running - a message appears: The content was blocked because it was not signed with a valid security certificate.

    I have Internet Explorer 8.0 installed

    I was looking for a solution to the problem, but no result.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Skype downloaded from the producer's website.
    Windows Vista Home Basic bought with the computer.
    The date and time are correct.

    Install the highest possible version of IE because Skype uses IE to login screen ...

    I have installed Internet Explorer 9.0 and still do not want to start (same certificate message).

    There is probably no version 10.0 for Vista.
