I had this problem and found out somehow that it is the inability to accept
updated security certificates that causes PayPal not to work on older
browsers.  I use iCab 2.9.8 for PayPal.  I am spoofing now as Netscape 7,
but have had it work with other identities presented, and probably with no
spoofing.  I can also use PayPal with WamCom Mozilla, and find that this
browser loads pages faster than iCab does.

When I try PayPal with Explorer 5.1.6, I get a dialog box Security Failure--
Data Encryption error before the header with a blank page.  The browser is
the problem.

My bank site does not work with WamCom Mozilla.  I can do every part of a
transaction except the very last click, and then nothing happens.  iCab
works and Explorer worked the last time I tried it, which was some months
ago.

iCab 3.0 is in beta testing now, and will be offered in completed form for
OS 8 and 9 in addition to X.  One of the stated goals for the browser is for
it to be a fully modern one for the older operating systems.  Users of these
systems should download and pay for iCab Pro now to support development.
