Qt QWebView The root certificate of the certificate chain is self-signed, and untrusted

In my Qt app I open a QWebView that makes an AJAX request to a server through https.

some code:

m_network = new QNetworkAccessManager(this);
...
QObject::connect(m_network, SIGNAL(sslErrors(QNetworkReply*, const QList<QSslError> & )),
                    this, SLOT(sslErrorHandler(QNetworkReply*, const QList<QSslError> & )));

and the handler:

void MainWin::sslErrorHandler(QNetworkReply* qnr, const QList<QSslError> & errlist) {

    foreach (QSslError err, errlist) {
        qDebug() << "ssl error: " << err << endl;
    }

    qnr->ignoreSslErrors();
}

I get the following error on a certain Windows XP machines, not all of them, some work just fine. I have OpenSSL installed on every machine.

Debug: ssl error:  "The root certificate of the certificate chain is self-signed, and untrusted"

Check the date and time in the clock on your computer.

Some security software intercept secure connections and send their own certificate.

Some examples are ESET and Bitdefender.

ESET setup -> advanced setup -> extend web and email tree -> SSL SSL protocol: Do not scan SSL protocol
