Internet Explorer on PocketPC

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

I just noticed that I while I am able to access the Netflix home page, I am
not able to sign in as a member to manage my account. I am told that "The
page you are looking for cannot be found". I have no problem when using my
desktop. Since Netflix uses a secure server, it dawned on me that my
problem might be caused by the possibility that PIE does not support SSL.
Does anyone know if that is true? I might have to move to a browser like
NetFront 3.1 if that is the case.

It might be something to do with the client side scripting. I'd see if
it works on your desktop with javascript turned off.

Must be something else. I turned javascripting off and was still able to
login successfully from my desktop. I decided to login on some other
accounts that require SSL and found the same results. If using SSL is
supported in PIE, I must have it disabled or something. I can't figure how
to toggle it on.

Well, you seem to know your way around your device, so at this point I
would probably do a backup, hard reset and try it before restoring. You may
have something causing you some grief, and it may take trial and error to
find the culprit . If it does not work with a "fresh" device then you have
eliminated a lot of variables at least, and leads to the rom update being
suspect. This is said with the assumption that your laptop is using the
same connection type and it can hit the ssl pages.

I recently had the same problem, since I'm clueless about PIE I'm using
Tweaks2k2 which makes your PIE pass as IE6 just by the click of a button and
barabing! is done, I even bought the program is very useful and you don't
have to mess with other registry nightmares....IMO
