I have a tiny HCL laptop with Linux as the OS. Everything works fine but the problem arises when I try to browse the internet. Any site I choose (e.g. Google) is declared insecure. So I can't use the internet at all. I would like to have a Gmail account on this laptop but this problem prevents me from sending or receiving email. What is the solution?
