Lincoln,

That's nice, but I think the user was asking specifically about
OFX Direct Connect, not OFX "Web Connect" (which is what you
just described).   Could a Quicken user contact BofA directly
or would they have to do the same "go to website and click on
download in Firefox/IE" steps?  I think the original question
was about the application contacting the BofA servers directly
via Direct Connect....

Thanks,
