Internet URL treated as Local Intranet URL

Docjava · 06-10-2003, 08:55 AM

I have a client who is trying to access their online banking but the URL shows up as a local intranet zone site. This is on both IE6 and IE5 on his machine only.
He's a behind a linksys wireless router and I just yanked out magistr virus on his system and I thought I did all the IE and Win98 critical updates.
He has no problems accessing this site if he uses Netscape.
Ideas my friends?
Thanks

Use netscape???

Some online banking actully thought Netscape was a good browser....and hence built thier sites to work better with it...CHASE

I am not 100% clear on the problem or if there is one...mabey the bank software put the site into the trusted site in explorer so it looking it as a local site
