"Dear WebBiz/WireBiz Customer:"

July 3, 2008
Dear WebBiz/WireBiz Customer:
You should have received a notice recently about the upcoming security enhancement on July 5, 2008 to WebBiz and WireBiz called Colonial Connection. We would like to remind you that your existing digital certificate will not provide access to Colonial Connection.
Colonial Connection will provide additional security information, such as digital certificate installation instructions, digital certificate removal instructions, updated FAQs and information regarding potential security threats.
Colonial Banks Web site will be updated with a change to the login section. Dont forget, within the updated login section, WebBiz and WireBiz will be replaced with Treasury Management. WebBiz and WireBiz customers must click Treasury Management to access Colonial Connection. If you would like to update your digital certificate and web address of your bookmark or favorite,

Press CONTINUE>>

Again, we appreciate the opportunity to serve your financial needs.
Sincerely,
Kevin Talley
AVP, Treasury Management Product Manager
