Help...IE7 and Windows Vista
What site is it, and do you know how it presents mail? If it is via an
ActiveX control IE7 requires you to jump through some extra hoops to deploy those. --- Your question may already be answered in Windows Vista Security: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/047...otectyourwi-20 "PA Bear" wrote: Forwarded to Vista Security newsgroup via crosspost. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) since 2002 AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net; DTS-L http://dts-l.org/ Allison wrote: I just bought a new laptop with Windows Vista.

Help...IE7 and Windows Vista
Jesper,
Thanks for replying. I saw this morning where my post had been forwarded to the Vista board and saw a post that related to Novell with a link to their support site. The site I was trying to access was Novell Groupwise Webaccess. I found my answer on the novell site and had to uncheck a box in the advanced security section under internet tools and now it works. I appreciate your help! Allison "Jesper" wrote: What site is it, and do you know how it presents mail?

It was the SSL 2.0 box, or something else?
