Since updating my Kaspersky Total Internet software to the 2017 version. SM 2.48 is reporting lots of security certificate errors.

Is this likely to be because SM 2.48 needs updating, a Kaspersky problem, or something else?

Thanks, in advance, for advice, fix suggestions, and/or guidance.

First, thanks for all the comments and suggestions.

I upgraded to SM v.2.49 but the problem didn't go away. Then, the Xmas holidays intervened followed by a bad case of influenza.

Interestingly, Windows Update also stopped working about December 1, 2017 on my Win 7 machine. That turned out to be a slight blessing as I didn't have to contend with the bad Intel/Microsoft Spectre/Meltdown patches that screwed up things for lots of folks.

The fix I found was to deinstall Kaspersky Internet Security (KIS) 2017 and go back to KIS 2016. With KIS 2016, all of the security certificate errors ceased.

My suspicion - untested at this point - is that KIS 2017 contained a preliminary fix required by the Intel/Microsoft Spectre/Meltdown patch and thus caused some sort of conflict with an unpatched (i.e. after December 1) Win 7 system. Who knows? Bad timing?
