I'm having trouble accessing BTF and a few other sites today. Does it have anything to do with this?

and if it does...is there anything that can be done?
Thank you

I'm running XP with Service Pack 3 so it shouldn't be a problem but it is. Clicking the like button works only sometimes too.

Well, XP isn't able to receive NEW certificates and updates, so it IS the problem.

Mainstream support for Windows XP ended on April 14, 2009, and extended support ended on April 8, 2014, after which the operating system ceased receiving further support or security updates. Windows Embedded POSReady 2009, based on Windows XP Professional, received security updates until April 2019. 

Think about upgrading to Linux ~ I'd recommend Linux Mint, Cinnamon edition ~ you'll feel right at home.
