    Sanity check - try accessing https://extranet.aqa.org.uk for me?

    In IE8, I can get it to work intermittently.
    In Firefox, I'm seeing problems with their intermediate certs.
    In Chrome, I'm seeing "cert revoked"

    If I turn off OSCP checking in Firefox, the site works.

    Can anyone replicate this please?


    edit: contacted them, they have broken it - eta hour to fix.

    There certs are out of date. They expired on 12/05/12

    I rung them and moaned, they told me to just click add an exception. I refused.

    but don't worry as "IT are aware of the issue"

    Wow I can't believe they suggested that, how about they just don't bother renewing the cert!

    Aye, they broke it the other day (14th) because their cert expired on the 12th.

    Then they broke it again today (17th) because their intermediate certs were broken (oscp checking failed hard).

    It's working again at the moment.
