Please note that just above the text editor (where you enter a question on the forum) is the following paragraph, and if certain information is not present in your question, our reply may not be very helpful:

Tip: If you are asking for help to troubleshoot a computer-related problem, please be sure to include all the necessary information (ie: operating system, model number, hardware, software, etc) that will help others identify your problem for a speedy resolution.

In addition, give the full complete and correct message information.

open your browser,(i'm assuming it's internet explorer). Click on tools, then Internet options, this will bring up a box that has all your settings. I would suggest reseting them to default. You can do this by clicking on the Advanced tab on the box that you opened and clicking "restore defaults"

What version of what browser?
What is the exact text of the message?
When do you get the message? Opening the browser, visiting some particular page, or, well, tell us.

A browser has a lot of settings (see Tools, Options in Internet Explorer), but it's not clear from your post which one of it might be meant here.
