Re: recent netbsd-7 certificate issue (unable to access google etc)

This happened to me on a Windows machine a few days ago when I had set the time to 2nd of May instead of 5th of February in the BIOS (it was MM/DD/YYYY fields, I entered DD/MM/YYYY, obviously). Receiving this message from Google was my first indication that the date was wrong.
