Problem with Download from Bank

I would just contitnue to use FireFox and skip trying to fix your problem with IE7. FF is a better, more secure browser.

You might check your bank's website to see if they even support downloading with IE7. There are a host of incompatilitiy problems with IE7. If you are using XP I would also suggest uninstalling IE7 to revert back to IE6.

Hi Laura, Just checked with bank, and there is a problem with IE7. Built in firewall can not be turned off for the bank transaction. I'm just going to use FireFox instead. Too much hassel to go back to IE6. Thanks for the suggestion...glad I called the bank. Best, Bob

Bob I have used Quicken 2005 and 2008 with IE 7 (Win XP machine) and had no trouble downloading my stuff directly into Quicken. About a week ago I changed to a Vista machine which uses IE7 and I have had not issue using Quicken 2008 (Quicken 2005 is not compatible with Vista, which is the reason I switched to QW 2008)

I suggest you contact tech support at SunTrust again. Your will probably get another person.

There is a firewall in IE7, but first it can be turned off, second it does not interfere with SunTrust stock downloading into Quicken. Incidently I also have usedInternet Banking with both my XP and Vista machines and that works fine also.

Hi, Bob.

STILL?

I could understand it a year ago, when Vista and IE7 were still in beta, but NOW? :>(

My bank (Wells Fargo) refused to let me access with IE7 beta until I used Fiddlertool to "fake it".

See this page:

I've not had to use this trick in the past year, but it worked fine when I needed it. (WF now recognizes IE7.)

That says it all!!

If you are using another firewall instead of MS's then turn off the MS one. That could be causing part of your problem. If IE7 allows you to turn on/off the firewall then it would be the MS one.

SInce FF works fine, why bother figuring out IE7's problem? FF is a far superior browser.

weird, I have turned off

getting a block when I

The ONLY time I ever got the BSOD under XP was when I was running FF. Never again.

That is interesting. I've been using FF or one of the mozilla family browsers for a long time and have never gotten a BSOD while using it. It has improved greatly over the years. Occasionally it will lock on me but never a BSOD.
