How do I connect to IFT through a firewall or proxy

Port 80. If you are repeatedly unable to connect to the IFT server, then

BizFOREX's platform employs state of the art security and encryption technology
to ensure that your transactions remain private and secure. It is recommended
that your Web browser supports 128-bit encryption. To test whether your Web
browser supports 128-bit encryption, please visit our Browser

Why are there two windows running when the platform is
launched?
When you login to IFT, the launch browser remains open and after a few seconds, the
ICTS applet will appear.
It is important that the small window not be closed (it can, however, be minimized)
while the IFT Platform is to remain in operation. The launch browser can
be closed at any time. This small window is necessary due to typical Java implementations
on most browsers that would otherwise not allow you to continue browsing the
Web while the User Interface is active.
