Hi Dave,

As reported by Richard Smith on CircleID, "VeriSign's SiteFinder service
breaks Microsoft's Outlook and Microsoft's Outlook Express email readers as
well as many of the standard Windows Networking Utilities by providing
misleading error messages, temporary lockups, and incorrect status
information."
