It is not about spoofing. They really cannot do it, because of some problems with java, I understand. Something about new MS software not running real Sun java but something else, or linux not running java from sun. Last time I checked I actually had a problem with NS4 and one of my banks, under mdk 82b3 . Will test again and see if it is still a problem. Still much to test for 82b3... Keld
