When i try to got to sites such as google or yahoo i get the following message:

Cannot connect to the real www.google.co.uk

Something is currently interfering with your secure connection to www.google.co.uk.

Try to reload this page in a few minutes or after switching to a new network. If you have recently connected to a new Wi-Fi network, finish logging in before reloading.

If you were to visit www.google.co.uk right now, you might share private information with an attacker. To protect your privacy, Chrome will not load the page until it can establish a secure connection to the real www.google.co.uk.

What does this mean?

www.google.co.uk normally uses encryption (SSL) to protect your information. When Chrome tried to connect to www.google.co.uk this time, www.google.co.uk returned unusual and incorrect credentials. Either an attacker is trying to pretend to be www.google.co.uk, or a Wi-Fi sign-in screen has interrupted the connection. Your information is still secure because Chrome stopped the connection before any data was exchanged.

Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work later. You can also try switching to another network.


Technical details

www.google.co.uk has asked Chrome to block any certificates with errors, but the certificate that Chrome received during this connection attempt has an error.
Error type: HSTS failure
Subject: www.google.co.uk
Issuer: Google Internet Authority G2
Public key hashes: sha1/oAd2rSf+8+wYBUg4cfSgjITcxBA= sha256/G+wUMnLdT7FWePYislVug4vZ5ESKe75DTCgKa+BBHxM= sha1/Q9rWMO5T+KmAym79hfRqo3mQ4Oo= sha256/7HIpactkIAq2Y49orFOOQKurWxmmSFZhBCoQYcRhJ3Y= sha1/wHqYaI2J+6sFZAwRfap9ZbjKzE4= sha256/h6801m+z8v3zbgkRHpq6L29Esgfzhj89C1SyUCOQmqU=

What is causing this and how can i fix it? :)
 


My date and time was wrong, probably because i reset CMOS on my motherboard yesterday.
I changed it to what it should be in the control panel and restarted chrome but i still get the message. Do i need to make sure it is correct in the BIOS aswell or restart my PC and see if that works?
 
I tried in internet explorer and got a very similar message:

There is a problem with this website’s security certificate.
The security certificate presented by this website has expired or is not yet valid.
Security certificate problems may indicate an attempt to trick you or intercept any data you send to the server.


I have the option to continue to the webpage but I would rather find out if it is safe first.
