A quick search of Google found this...

12038       ERROR_INTERNET_SEC_CERT_CN_INVALID

               SSL certificate common name (host name field) is incorrect.

               For example, if you entered www.server.com and the common

               name on the certificate says www.different.com.

Maybe some more information would help us help you...

i am trying to 'rip' some data from

https://share.com/cgi-bin/oicgi.exe/inet_raccount?function=platinum_120&Param1=full_platinum_list&Pa...

sometimes just adding the url of the page works - it worked for some other sources straight away, any help?

I just tried the link and got this message...

You attempted to reach share.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as www.share.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version ofshare.com.

It looks like the issue is that the website and Certificate identifying the website do not match.  This is causing your error.  You need to fix the certificate for this site.

Good luck...
