Hello
Should I not open these pages, or add the 'www' after the 'http' bit as suggested? They are University websites, so feel they should be OK
Thanks.

There is a problem with this website's security certificate.

McAfee SiteAdvisor Apr 5, 2007

McAfee Site Advisor is another way of checking whether it is safe to open a web link or not. It is free from http://www.siteadvisor.com/
(there is a more elaborate version which you have to pay for, but the free one seems quite adequate to me).
