My virus prog is ESET Smart Security and each time I go onto my email account on Yahoo, when I have finished and signed out I get this message asking me to block or allow from Mozilla Comet.yahoo.com because its certificate is no longer valid. is it safe or not to allow this??

hi, this looks like a fairly useless feature of your security software since browsers like firefox will refuse to load content from sites with expired certificates anyway - so it won't really make a difference whether you allow this in eset or not. ultimately it's up to yahoo to fix their site and renew their expired certificate...
