I just wanted to share about our experience last night with trying to log into our Bank of America account. Ever since we moved (about a month ago) my wife had a 70/30 chance of successfully logging into our online banking. After you put in your credentials you’d get a “address could not be found” error. She contacted their folks and, of course, nothing is wrong on their end.  So she did some research and other people have experienced the same thing.  From her research she’s seen that the common denominator is… you guessed it… Windows Vista!

So; knowing that, we tried it on my installation of Fedora and I tried it with Epiphany and Firefox and BoYAH! We’re in! Just one more reason to switch from Windows to Linux. Linux can get you into online banking.

I fought to find the answer to this question for weeks. I almost pulled the plug on my Vista adventure, to revert back to Windows XP, in order to play Battlefield 2.  I finally found the answer, there’s a secret v1.5 beta 2 patch being hosted on the mirrored sites, which has Windows Vista support.
