Hey Skyslug, What you really need to do is: Follow these steps because is a setting issue that comes by default with the new Internet Explorer and Vista.

1. OPEN UP you Internet Explorer
2. Tools then Internet Option
3. Click on the Advanced TAB (Far Right)
4. Scroll down to the bottom
5. Check the box that says "Use SSL 2.0
6. Don't forget to hit Apply and OK

That should solve your issue with IE and Epic.

Enjoy
