This work helps readers discover their online banking options. Though bank Web sites around the world look different on the surface, they all offer the same underlying functionality. Here, readers should learn how to locate their bank online, review statements, check account balances, transfer funds, pay bills, communicate with the bank, and review product information, all online. Readers will also find out how to import their account information from the bank's Web site into their favourite financial software, whether that be Managing Your Money, Microsoft Money, AOL Bank Now, or QuickBooks. There is information on security issues, including tools, tips and government protection. It also covers how specific Web browsers can impact online banking functionality and what to do about it, along with a directory section filled with banking-related Web sites. The CD includes ISP software, browsers, demo versions of popular banking software packages, the "Directory" section in HTML format, and other tools for online banking.
