Unable to access secure sites since IE6 upgrade installed

[colin]

Since installing an upgrade to IE6 three days ago I am
unable to access secure sites such as Symantec updates, my
account page. Anybody else experiencing these
difficulties?

I have the same problems, fine for any generic sites, but
when I go to secure sites such as banking sites, credit card companies
even expedia, etc. it says unable to access. Very frustrating
it is set up with 128 encryption. Netscape works fine.

I have been tracing down this problem for 3 days. I tried all of the
above recommendations and then some to no avail. I finally found that
Microsoft has released an update to Wininet.dll to correct this problem.

NOTE: I have not yet tested this fix on my client's machine. I will
post update to inform if this does the trick sometime tomorrow.
