Oh you have no idea how welcome this is. As a member of the National Guard, we are expected to use our own personal equipment to access DoD websites. It is a constant battle of certificates that are not recognized, expired, many other things. The Army maintains a gold image for all active duty computers, but us silly part time soldiers who try to use our own equipment are completely screwed.

Just this month alone I have been 'mandated' to sign multiple documents and complete on-line courses that I can not access due to the Army's making everything only Microsoft compatible. So many sites are years old still making ancient calls to Internet Explorer functions.

The simple act of fixing the certificate issues would eliminate half the frustration right now. The second thing they need to do is mandate that any site has to operate with all the major browsers, and not just ancient versions of IE.
