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.

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!
