Some security sites work for me. I know there are others that have worked for me, but the only one I can think of off the top of my head right now is NBP (National Braille Press). I've been able to do online shopping successfully with some sites that have shown me "Security Redirection Dialog Boxes". In addition, I'm able to log into a lot of online accounts. I try it on a site-by-site basis, and see if it works. When I had KeySoft 4.01, some sites didn't work that do now for me with KeySoft 5 burnt into ROM. Even when I had upgraded KeySoft by downloading the upgrade from the Ternet, my accessibility improvement didn't change until I actually got KeySoft 5 burnt into ROM. I can't speak for other users, but that was the case for me. I haven't done banking or anything like that, but I've had some success with these types of sites. Sorry I can't think of many from memory right now. I guess you just have to experiment with it.
