    When visiting Google Plus plus.google.com, the following error came up. I am using OpenDNS's DNS on my home network. Any solutions?

    This is probably not the site you are looking for!
    You attempted to reach plus.google.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as *.opendns.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 of plus.google.com.
    You cannot proceed because the website operator has requested heightened security for this domain.

    This is a problem with the certificate on an SSL/TLS page in conjunction with OpenDNS block or guide page redirection.

    Either you have something blocked with your OpenDNS settings, and therefore the warning about a certificate from another site (OpenDNS) comes up, or some domain does not resolve also causing this to come up.

    Check your domain stats for possibly related blocked domains and unblock those. If the issue is due to a not resolvable domain name, you simply can ignore the warning.

    You are right and thank you for the tip.

    I blocked chat category. somehow, plus.google.com is considered as chat.
    I meant to block google talk.

    To keep chat blocked, you could add plus.google.com (and possibly more) to your "never block" list.
