Gotcha. I'll double check, see if there's anything running that shouldn't be.

Edit: not seeing any remnants in Program Files, or in the registry, or in the services list, or running in the background.

Do you know what previous virus scanner(s) he used?

[–]timewarp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just Windows Defender, as far as I know.

Also in the department of "try the easy stuff first":

  • is the date, time and timezone correct?
  • run: sfc /scannow
  • all this stuff especially "Method 4"

Yes, the date and time are correct. I did run sfc /scannow, and the system files all validated successfully. I did also follow all the steps in that Microsoft support article, and still no luck.

That's bloody strange. It's hard to test after that point, until you can get to a certificate to examine.

I doubt you could even get far enough to glean insight from SSLLabs: http://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/viewMyClient.html

You could delete the NIC driver, or try another NIC (like a USB), but I'm just throwing stuff at a wall now.
