Scan the system for spyware and viruses...

I know this will probably sound like a really stupid answer, but...

Make sure your system clock/date is set correctly.

I often double-click the little clock in the bottom right-hand corner when I want quick access to a calendar. A few times, I have accidentally hit OK after jumping to a different month -- and that has caused problems with certificates.

try doing a Windows update. There was a patch that deal with this, I thought.
