Why do I receive a security alert when accessing DMV EZ?
and
Why do I receive the "System encountered an error" page?

DMV EZ uses digital certificates issued by VeriSign to ensure that your connection with DMV EZ is protected.

VeriSign, in January of 2003, discontinued support for digital certificates installed in earlier versions of Internet Explorer® 5.0 (IE 5.00.2614) and below or Netscape Communicator® 4.6 and below.

DMV EZ customers using these earlier browsers are affected. One of two things may happen:

  1. You may receive the "System encountered an error" page. There will be no further information on the error page that helps you identify the problem, though. You will not be able to continue with your current task.

    You will have to upgrade your browser by following the steps below.

  2. You may encounter a security alert message whenever you attempt to enter a secure session. You will have the option to continue and if you choose to do so, your session will still be encrypted.

    To avoid the security alert/error page in the future, we recommend that you either update your browser's root certificate or upgrade your browser to a supported version. Please find instructions below:

Microsoft® browsers
