    Hi Patti4754,

    ·        Which web browser are you using on the computer? Is it Internet Explorer or some other web browser?

    ·        Do you get this error message while browsing any particular website or it happens randomly?

    ·        Do you remember making any hardware/software changes or any new updates installed after which the issue started?

    If you are using Internet Explorer then you may try running Internet Explorer in No Add-Ons mode to determine whether the issue is caused by an add-on.

    **How to optimize Internet Explorer- Method 3: Run Internet Explorer in "No Add-Ons" mode**

    If the issue doesn’t persist in No Add-Ons mode then, use the Manage Add-ons tool in Internet Explorer to individually disable each add-on to determine which add-on is causing errors. See “Option 2: Use the Manage Add-ons tool to determine which add-on is causing the issue”.

    Hope this helps. Look forward to hearing back from you.

    Thanks and Regards, Santosh Y – Microsoft Support
