I am facing a strange behavior I never had before with IE 7 : I can access
any webpage (so my internet connexion is not at fault here). However, I can
no longer enter sites thatrequire ID and password (Gmail, Facebook, and same
thing with manu more, even my bank !....)

What is the problem and how can I solve it ?

Thanks,
Rob

System : Win XP SP2 (all updates aways done)
