Hi Mark - I'm using a Gnet internet gateway with 4 ports. I'm not the only
user as my husband will connect his laptop when he's working at home. I'll
do a search for their website, maybe the issue is addressed there. I've
never heard of VPN so I'll do some reading up on that too. As for the
reluctance to upgrade - it's nothing to do with not wanting the newer
version and everything to do with needing to also have the older versions
for testing my web site for compatability. I would upgrade in a minute if
someone can tell me how to have more than one version of the same browser on
my system at the same time. Keep in mind that my HD's are not partioned.
Thanks. Dianne

What exactly is the router you are using? The first thing I would do, is
contact the router/firewall manufacturer, and ask them what is causing
this. If it is new router with VPN = Virtual Private Network capability, it
may be confusing your bank as a VPN.
Why are you reluctant to upgrade to IE6x? I have never had any problems
with final vetted versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer. I would not
dream of logging into my bank account without the latest version of IE, and
with all recent security patches in place.
