We also recommend that you install the latest version of Microsoft's Internet Explorer, no matter how you connect to your processor. Some processors require Internet Explorer version 6 or later to be installed in order to process transactions. Internet Explorer is more than just an Internet browser; it actually upgrades your operating system.
SSL Requirements
Depending on your payment processing company, connection type, and operating system, you may need to install some upgrades/enhancements to your operating system. Some processing companies are beginning to process transactions via SSL2 (a highly secure Internet protocol).
