Firstly, what browser? and what version of windows?

 

But check the web address shows as "https:\\" at the start, and not "http:\\" - (note the S being different)

 

if there's no S, try putting it there, press enter and see if it makes a difference..

 

But to advise further, we really need to know what web browser...
