You kinda' highjacked his thread with you Citibank problem. You should have started a one. Not a big deal. That happens here often. ;-) I have read, somewhere, that Greasemonkey will allow both CNN and FOX videos when setup correctly. Keep trying. As for Konqueror? I haven't used it in years. I did NOT apply for a credit card but I can access citibank.com with Firefox 2.0.0.1 Good luck and keep trying. - -- David -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) iD8DBQFFtBS+AO0wNI1X4QERAtJBAJ4t79Wi23KG3Wq664Jtu2SWreYdPQCg0aa/ f2hGAAFYYzcZPHVyDTvaaNA= =F2bE -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
