Well, most probably the bank checks for netscape 4 or internet explorer, the two versions they believe are the only ones to have ssl support, at least that is what happen with my bank, after i enter the login and password, there is a continually swirling wait logo, and that's it. The fact that it complains about the empty string may be a standard error path or something such. If this is the case (but then maybe not, i don't really know) having your browser maskerade as ie or netscape may help. I know mozilla can do this, but you have to hand modify the config file.
