Access this page, http://www.huntington.com/ (http://www.huntington.com/)

I want to dump IE6 totally, but I need it for my online banking. Opera is not 'compatible' with Huntington's site for some reason. I don't like any version of Netscape so don't recommend that to me either  (http://tongue.gif)

Hey,

I'm in linux at the moment using Mozilla version 0.9.4 and I had no problem accessing that page.

it loads fine with Opera 5 in MacOS 9 too.
it says it is best viewed with netscape or internet explorer. Opera views all netscape compatible sites fine, and most IE sites (basically everything except a Microsoft site is fine, because Microsoft like to make it difficult for people who don't use IExploder)

Odd. I get a page telling me "This site requires Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator Version 4.0 or above"

Opera does work fine with all netscape sites, and almost all IE sites, not designed by MS anyway.

I'll have to DL the latest build of mozilla, see if it works.

Whats the link to the tool to remove IE6?

Whats the link for removing IE6?   (http://smile.gif)

Edit - I found it through Google, but it says it does not work in winXP or Win2ksr2.

However to access your page you will need to type the following address:

As fast as IE as I can see if not faster.

No keyboard shortcut (like "Alt+Sparrow")
No adress bar directly visible.
