UAC does not accept Banxafe Smart Card Reader

For my home banking I have this external USB smart card reader (Ingenico
Banxafe) with numeric pad. The secure website of my bank insists on
using Internet Explorer AND Microsoft Virtual Machine to communicate
with the smart card reader.

If I turn UAC fully OFF, then my home banking works fine. But if UAC is
turned ON, the home banking secure web site reports "Smart card reader
not found".

I suspect it has something to do with one or more of Vista's security
settings, which blocks Microsoft VM (without any prompt or message) but
I haven't a clue which setting it could be.

Does anybody know a solution?

TIA

What if you add the site to the trusted zone?
I'm thinking it may be protected mode which is stopping it working.

It is, otherwise it wouldn't work at all, regardless the UAC status.
