XP SP2 is also EOL as of this date, according to a notice from M$ I got a week or so ago.

(OT) actually, Win2000 SP4 is supported until July 12th <grin> But I'd think that the bank has regulatory compliance requirements to provide access via *secure* methods only, and depending on end-of-life operating systems and browsers is likely in violation. Ask them when their next compliance audit is <evil grin> On Thu, Jun 17, 2010 at 10:33 AM, John Aldrich < jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com> wrote: I just got off the phone with the help desk at our bank. We have a new Vista computer and the software we use to view our check images no longer works because we're using Vista and Vista is not a supported O/S. Apparently it only works on XP, 2000 or 98. L Not to mention, they couldn't tell me how to get an updated version of the software! I've got a call into the sales rep to explain that they really need to get with it, because XP isn't being sold any more, and 98 and 2000 are not even *supported* by Microsoft any longer! Sheesh! This is the second issue I've had with a so-called "help desk" this week. I'm not feeling very charitable right now! ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
