I had a similar experience with IE when trying to download QL software
updates from Jochen's website. As you suggest, lowering the security
level and IIRC enabling cookies allowed the process to work (it was
Bruce who suggested that to me at the time)
It doesn't do much for people's confidence in internet security when a
system is seemingly so secure that the only way to make it work is to
make it less secure. I know that anyone who knows about the internal
workings of these things will tell you it's just a simple case of this
and that, but users don't always know that. And as with this system, I'm
pretty sure it wasn't any fault of Jochen's site, althouth the site did
want to place a cookie on my computer that IE was blocking because I had
opted for strict security settings at the time.
Well, it's not my site anyway - the update site is hosted on Bruce's
server :-)
You will see that updates.j-m-s.com forwards immediately to
blocktoris.com/jms/
Thanks to Bruce for his help and support!
Jochen
