3. Website certificate

Certain third-party programs like antivirus software can replace our website certificate with their own, which significantly slows down the server response time and can even lead to getting no response from the server at all.

Moreover, such a replacement can even take place without you knowing about that, as such programs often update automatically.


So, we need to check whether a certificate has been replaced. For us to do that, please provide a screenshot of the certificate by following these steps:

1. Being logged in your Protemos account, click a lock next to the URL address of any Protemos page:

border 800px


2. Then click "Connection is secure":

border 800px


3. Then click "Certificate is valid":

border 800px


4. And you will see a similar certificate:

border 800px

Please make a screenshot of it and sent it to us.

4. Do you use a virtual private network (VPN)?

If you use VPN, please specify it when describing your problem as well.

It can be done using a remote access solution like TeamViewer or by sharing your screen during a Skype/Zoom call.

Whom should I contact best?
