00:15 by RC?.

A PC of a family member has Windows XP home edition. It started having trouble opening the customized web home page. Then mail. Now, many web sites. I contacted the ISP and the tech suggested that it might be that the security files wouldn’t allow access to any minimally secure sites, but didn’t know how to fix it. I use Macs, so I’m not accustomed to Windows troubles. How can I fix it? Thanks.
