Since I moved a couple of days ago, I haven't been able to access any https sites on any browser from my laptop.
I tried clearing my browser histories, I tried uninstalling my anti-virus software, I even tried doing a system restore to before I moved. None of it has worked - I can't access my email, and now I can't login into livejournal either.
I suspect the next step is to call my broadband provider and see what they can do, but I figured I'd see if anyone on my dwircle/flist had any brilliant suggestions in the meantime?

Do you have other computers at this location? Is https working for them and therefore is it just your laptop, or is it the entire location that can't reach https sites? (I probably should have led with this question, damn I'm rusty)
Are you on Windows XP? See this thread here for lots of other remedy steps: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-performance/port-443-https-blocked-http-port-80-works-fine/1f4016a4-ab6e-40f9-9e2b-337a85bbb065 - actually the thread is useful even if you're not on XP, just don't apply the registry fix on the second page.
