Malke,
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I've done them all, with no change. IE
is working fine at 100 different sites, and these two sites are fine from
different computers than mine so .......
I'm thinking it's a setting in the Registry but I don't want to go there
without guidance. I've tried everything I could see in shutting off XP
firewall , MacAfee firewall, every setting I could read about in Internet
options. I used IEFix and it ran , it also had me reload IE..... I"m just
lost and frustrated.
Any other ideas I could try.
jeff
