    I've never had that problem with Sygate. Have you tried using another browser? If you're using Internet Explorer, you shouldn't be using that for general web browsing - let alone going to secure sites - in the first place. If you're using Firefox, try Opera, or vice versa.

    Failing that, what are your settings e.g. which applications are allowed/denied, do you have DLL injection checking on, do you have any "Advanced Rules" set up, and so on?

    Sygate's a pretty good firewall, despite being old. Better ones exist like Comodo or Jetico, but they are much more difficult to set up properly.
