Fix for Security Certificate issue between Grand and Toy website and Internet Explorer 7

An Internet Explorer update to version 7 may be part of the standard updates to the Windows operating system. Internet Explorer 7 may display a “name resolution” error when one tries to login to the Canadian Grand and Toy website.

The browser will inform you that
- the name in the security certificate does not match with the website
- will ask you if you wish to continue
- warn you that the connection may be insecure

The previous version of Internet Explorer, did not have the address mismatch verification feature. The resolution is as follows:

Option 1.

Logon to www.grandandtoy.com instead of www.grandandtoy.ca . The certificate's name assignment is only valid for the www.grandandtoy.com site.

Option 2 .

• Open Internet Explorer 7
• Click on Tools -> Internet Options
• Click on Advanced
• In the list of options, scroll down to the bottom in the “Security” section, there is an option listed as,
  “Warn about certificate address mismatch” Deselect this option
• Save the changes, close Internet Explorer 7.

For security reasons, it is advisable that you use option1.
