That seems to happen occasionally, but in general it works fine as long
as you use IE. I agree that it's truly stupid to not make it usable with
other browsers. It also really sucks that you have to use the assigned
password and cannot change it. Considering that the site is open to the
public, what's the point of heavy-handed security.

Especially when the password is VERY cryptic and not easily remembered.
Netscape remembers my passwords for me, but I don't trust IE/Windows
with this as they are too easily hacked.
