Matt,

My client is using CF5.0 on a win box, could you explain the process of adding target/remote web server as a trusted referring server?
"add the BofA server as a trusted referring server and everything will magically work."

Another question, does this technique apply to most https problem with cfhttp tag or only applicable to certain situation?

Thanks.

Don
