[Help - Windows] SSL Protocol

[Anime Forum]

Well fairly recently I haven't been able to login to many websites because something titled the SSL_Protocol has been disabled. Recently also, restarting my pc brought up some strange 3rd party threat and I was wondering would these two incidents have any similarity? How can I stop this possible intruder? How can I login to websites I cannot enter?

You don't post nearly enough information for anyone to be able to help.

Operating system?
Web browser?
Screenshots of this phenomenon? (Detailed information if available?)

Well actually my brother was doing something important last night so I was I had to really rush. As said, I cannot login to any of my websites unless I wasn't already logged out. I can't screenshot it because I don't know if this would mean anything due to a hacker but my paint system is gone. I searched for it and everything and its officially gone.

It happens on Mozilla Firefox mostly..

XP computer.

Also stuff on my microsoft word are slowly vanishing.

How's the responsiveness of your PC? Slow and clunky?

Well, even if it's not slow it could be some funky spyware/virus infection... although I kinda doubt it. I've been out of touch with the Windows world until recently, but I've never heard of somethin' like this.

What do ya got in terms of proteciton? Firewall, anti-spyware, anti-virus, stuff like that?

Edit: And what do you mean by "third-party threat? You mean somethin' popped up when you booted up your comp?
