About two weeks ago, I think, it was alright. Now IE 8 8 is having some kind of problem. Not a problem is Firefox, I can just ignore it. But IE will not let me go naked. I mean barefoot.
I don't care about the SSL, this site I am using is a trusted site. Somewhere I read that is a new issue in Windows XP. What do I do?
This link has me confused.

I have an application that only works with IE. So, how do I tell IE that all is good, don't worry.
What can I do?

Curious which app only works with IE...

Instant WordPress.
https://instantwp.com/
InstantWP is a complete standalone, portable WordPress development environment.
It will turn almost any Windows or macOS machine into a WordPress development server.
InstantWP is free software, published under the GPL v3 License.
Of course InstantWP is spyware and adware free 🙂
I don't know o anyway to make it call Firefox instead of IE.
But maybe somebody here does.

Fro reference:
The current version of Instant WP from 5.0 up does not work with XP.
Version 4.5 of Instant WP with work if fix in a config file to use a browser other than IE. I choose Firefox. (IE8 has a SSL problem that stops Instant WP .)
The file to change is:
pms_config.ini
Thee you will find this:
[Browser]
BrowserType=EXTERNAL
BrowserCommandOptions=
BrowserPath= ../system/InstantWP_GUI.exe
WorkOfflineTitle=InstantWP
BrowserSize=
Make this change for Firefox:
BrowserPath="C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
It works great! And it will let you move the front page a tab to a new window. So no I can edit in the dashboard and see changes on my second monitor when I hit F5. That is so col!
Patio, you made my day! ;D
