Some login sites don't work

[Chaim Danzinger]

Hi-

I am having problems with some sites which need passwords or logins. For
some reason after filling out my user name and password correctly I still
can't login, on one site I keep on getting prompted for the user and pass
again, and on a different site where no user/pass is necessary and I must
just verify a code from an image on the side, I keep on receiving an error
that I entered the wrong code.

On my other computer (not laptop) everything seems to work fine... Any help
greatly appreciated...

Regards, Chaim

Fix if This problem occurs after you apply the 832894 security update
(MS04-004) or the 821814 hotfix.

SYMPTOMS
Programs that use Wininet functions to post data (such as a user name or a
password) to a Web server retry the POST request with a blank header if the
Web server closes (or resets) the initial connection request.
