My 404 notice said it was a security certificate issue. Outage lasted less than an hour. Probably a vapor lock issue...

Global warming or climate change is causing the Russians to do this.

With Safari I got a certificate error. Probably just a certificate that expired. Must have gotten fixed or updated as I am not getting the error anymore.

Its ok now (noon) but earlier this morning I got the "not safe site" warning and it would not open. There was a link to click on to go back to safe site yeah right. Probably spammers. Using google chrome.

I run my laptop on 6v positive ground. It turns over a bit slower than most, but always starts. The worst part is with the vacuum keyboard and the speed of it when I'm typing uphill, which is pretty much the only way I type these days....

Check your ground connections and make sure you're running heavy enough cables!

Definitely low compression and a weak starter . . . time for a rebuild!

XP = Nightmare: Actually you should really consider getting off of XP - as it is a 'hackers dream' as far as virus', etc.. This is the reason why Europe and 3rd World countries get hit really hard with new global virus releases (as they're not up to date in many cases).

Recommendation: Try to get to Window 10 with all the latest security patches, set it up for auto-updates and get a GOOD virus protection package like 'Bit Defender'.

If Stuck on XP: Also, Microsoft stopped updates for XP in 2014, but recently released a set of emergency updates to help prevent some of the globally destructive 'ransomware' attacks for infecting XP. At the very least - apply these updates.

If you have trouble typing uphill, try typing in reverse..........
