I've been trying all sorts of different things,
and still no joy - turned off the firewall, the virus scanner, etc
Schwab - NG, all other accounts - OK
Also, have the new IE 7.0 loaded.... in case they might have hosed Schwab.
BTW - Brought up a protocol analyzer,
and it seems to just be ping-ponging packets for 443 to ofx.schwab.com
which is the SSL web port vs port 80
All the other accounts access their hosts the same way - but they work ok
