Can no longer download banking transactions Q2007, XP on Mac Boot Camp Partition

I recently bought a Mac, and used Boot Camp to create new partition for dual
boot into XP w/ SP3. My Windows programs all seem to be working fine, and I
confirmed that I could run Quicken 2007 H&B (Cdn) on this partition before
sending away my old Windows machine. However, I find I'm no longer able to
download banking transactions into various accounts, in different Q files.

I have tried both direct download, and saving transaction files with
subsequent import. (These have different sizes, so I presume the download
from banks are working fine.) Both methods produce "Updating financial
instition information. Contacting host..."

I wondered if maybe Windows firewall was blocking, even though no error
message. Changed to ZoneAlarm, and see no difference...
After doing some searching online, I went to menu item Online > Online
Centre. When I go there, I see expected transactions were downloaded, but
I've had no chance to Accept them, they seem to be in limbo. I've tried to
remove online access so I can then re-establish, but transactions must be
Accepted first! How can I access them??

Can anyone help?? Thanks!

Forgot to mention my Q2007 XG (not H&B) is on Release 5.
