Re: Certificate error.. Pharming attack?

What does the certificat say if you enter an ip address instead of URL ?

e.g. for google mail :
https://209.85.129.99/

I have a problem with my pc. Every time I visit a site, I get that the
certificate is not valid. I checked the issuer, and it is always the same as
the url of the site!!
Suspicious!
Does anyone have any idea how to check and fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Charis
