Possibly some of these websites don't work
well with webtv. These websites are
constantly changing and I suspect the
website designers don't have any way to
check if the webtv browser works with their
web site, not that they would even care if it
did.


Does webtv even support ssl?


Often webtv does have trouble with these type of websites. It works
extremely slowly sometimes; other times not at all. The most frustrating
thing is when it works until the last step, making payment, and then it
no longer goes through. Often with webtv, it's best to get the
information and then when there is an 800 number go that route.

Webtv does support ssl. in fact, when it first came out, it was
forbidden to export webtv because of the level of encryption.

Before Microshaft bought webtv from its creators, it was constantly
upgrading to meet internet standards.
