Windows 10: Cannot connect to certian websites?

Recently, we've had an issue where certain websites are not connecting. we are getting a connection reset error on Chrome, and a Cannot connect because of security issues on Edge.


The sites are microsoft.com and facebook.com. The issue affects our windows machines, but not iPads, Linux or other os's.


All machines are fully updated. Antivus and anti-spyware are clean.


Any idea what the issue might be?
