Are you sure it's an official Microsoft site?

Secure Connection Failed

downloads.channel8.msdn.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is only valid for www.dreamspark.com

(Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)

* This could be a problem with the server's configuration, or it could be someone trying to impersonate the server.

* If you have connected to this server successfully in the past, the error may be temporary, and you can try again later.

Or you can add an exception…

A tech site??

Who told you that??

If it was a MSDN site that's a legit Microsoft site, if you're a developer you can get copies of beta software and stuff, but it costs alot to subscribe to it.

But I don't know what he was trying to do.
