This past weekend a friend of mine did win a netbook in some random drawing.
The specs of the netbook are as follows:
128 MB RAM
16 GB flash disk
Windows CE 6.0 embedded operating system
Okay, now here's the problem.
The pre-installed Internet Explorer always gives multiple warning pop-ups regarding web certificates when visiting https sites. There is no option to set a custom internet security level because everything in Windows CE is stripped down to its minimum to run as lightweight as possible.
We already tried to install Firefox, Safari, Opera, K-Meleon and Chrome but nothing seems to work. We always get this 'Program xyz is not a valid Windows CE application' and it won't let us install anything at all.
Even Google nor Youtube could provide a solution, there is hardly any knowledge/support for Windows CE out there and we're running out of options.
Does anyone know of a browser that does work on this crappy operating system, or at least how to disable those annoying pop-ups when there is no option in the browser settings to actually do this?
There just HAVE to be other people running Windows CE on some device, right?
If you are one of those few, please post the solution if you have it.
Thank you very much in advance

Microsoft has announced the official release of their ARM-based embedded OS, Windows Embedded Compact 7, probably better known as Windows CE 7. Windows CE7 will be the core of Windows Phone 7 (or 8), the current version running a combination of Windows CE 6 and 7 to ensure the product reached market on time.
Windows Embedded Compact is a componentized, real-time operating system used to create a wide range of small footprint enterprise and consumer devices.
New features in Windows Embedded Compact 7
Silverlight for Windows Embedded
The power of Silverlight gives developers and UI designers the tools to rapidly create declarative, multi-touch user interfaces that are powered by the speed of native code. Separation of the UI from the business logic makes it easy to iterate on device and application UIs without affecting core development tasks.

Internet Explorer Embedded
The Internet Explorer browser runs a combination of IE7 and IE8, much like Windows Phone 7, but Integrated Flash 10.1 in browser powers playback of Flash content and Flash content can be run full-screen without browser UI.

Connection Manager & Windows Device Stage
Connection Manager provides infrastructure technology to manage multiple network transports on the device. Use Windows Device Stage to allow users to easily transfer media and content between devices and PCs. Windows Embedded Compact 7 provides developers with the connectivity support needed to create seamless connections to PCs, servers and online services. Compact 7 offers updated NDIS 6.1, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G, Kerberos v5 and USB networking, accelerating the creation of always-connected devices and applications.
