macbook pro is not supporting regions bank

I have a macbook pro and have Norton for antivirus - all of a sudden the only website it will not let me log into is Regions Bank - has anyone else had this problem? I don't know if it is Norton or my computer. I can sign on to Regions on a desktop so I am thinking Apple might not like Norton? idk


Thanks

The only thing you have mentioned that might be precluding you from making good connections to web sites like banks is something you seem to feel is "protecting" you in some fashion -- that is your Third-party anti-virus. The only thing worse would be also running a VPN you added yourself "for improved security".


Nothing could be father from the truth. This sort of software breaks into your previously-secure communications, so that it can be FIRST to scan incoming data (which is not a threat on your already well-protected Macintosh system) for imaginary threats such as antique Windows Virus look-alike strings.


I recommend you remove all such snake-oil using the manufacture's un-installers, and never re-install them.
