my work forces us to use IE to access a program on the net. The program stores data on pdf forms we can fill in and change online. It is not completely functional using firefox.

Had NO problems accessing this site using vista 32 bit.

so tried to access that pdf site today first time using IE for 64 bit vista and got slammed by all these security error messages by the dozens and the gist is the pdf pages will finally open but there is no content in the forms, only the form headings.

first had to turn off Antivir because it was popping up error/warnings every 2 seconds and was out of control.

tried changing all sorts of settings in the internet zone, trusted zone, made the site an allowed site. Finally we turned off EVERYTHING we could find for security in IE but since we are forced to use it, we have to figure out why IE 64 bit is doing this.

suggestions? Thanks!

one more thing...

btw using firefox I CAN read all the data. just cannot do certain things with it, which was also the case in vista 32.

so at least I can read the stuff with FF.

Perhaps you should try the 32 bit version of IE in Vista x64?
